No, that would just be an alias to any built-in serial ports that are  
in your Mac.  That Mac would have to be Beige, because the newer ones  
don't have serial ports built in anymore.  If your USB->serial adapter  
doesn't have its own /dev/tty*, then the Linux comport object wouldn't  
work.  You'd have to find a MacOS X Driver Kit object instead, or  
something like that.  But I don't really know the details.

"If nature has made any one thing less susceptible than all others of  
exclusive property, it is the action of the thinking power called an  
idea, which an individual may exclusively possess as long as he keeps  
it to himself; but the moment it is divulged, it forces itself into the  
possession of everyone, and the receiver cannot dispossess himself of  
it."
