	Just out of excessive optimism, I dug out the old adapter for 
using serial cables with a USB port; plugged first the etrex cable and 
then the rino one, through it, into a USB port. Neither became visible to 
the software, with or without the transfer option in the Preferences set 
to ignore Garmin devices on serial ports. <sigh>
