As far as Jag being reliability we have only had 2 break since first started the use of them. One was because metal debris fell inside the casing which can happen to a victor. The other was when we updated the firmware on a grey jag.
Last I checked any USB to serial adapter will work... just be sure you get the correct COM number.
