Product Review (submitted on January 14, 2015):

Shows up without a driver install under Windows 7 and Windows 98 SE under VMWare. Beautiful.

The length of the USB cable makes it easy to plug straight into whatever machine you're hooking up to, but because it has the thumbscrew sockets on it, and whatever you're plugging into will as well, it's impossible to use without an extension cable. I opened mine up and removed the sockets. It's uglier now, but more useful for me.
