Ray, you'll do it serially.  The FTDI serial chip on the Arduino board 
will have a 0% error rate at a 250,000 bits per second data rate.

You'll write FSUIPC code to pump data to the Arduino - that's what I do 
for the light driver I did.

Political correctness is a doctrine, fostered by a delusional, illogical
minority, and rabidly promoted by an unscrupulous mainstream media, which
holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a turd
by the clean end.
