+ * NOTE that the MS-Windows drivers for this chip use some funky and
+ * (naturally) undocumented 7-byte prefix to each packet, so this is a
+ * case where we don't currently interoperate. Also, once you unplug
+ * one end of the cable, you need to replug the other end too ... since
+ * chip docs are unavailable, there's no way to reset the relevant state
+ * short of a power cycle.
