#168003 - One FTDI Annoyance
Responding to: ???'s previous message
is that every part start with a (relatively) unique serial number that in turn causes the (Windows) PC to create another COM port number. So pretty soon you have hundreds of COM ports that need removal. FTDI has a utility for removing the serial number, but if you plan on testing each device on a PC you will find this extra step quite annoying.
