That one might be a better bet. All the ones I've had are based on a Prolific chipset; I've gotten drivers from their website:

It's good to see that Prolific doesn't have a monopoly.

EDIT: Some of the devices I've used with a Prolific chipset have become flaky, so you might try the Parallax first.
