Thanks for the info, I still have a Windows 7 netbook,
15.4" Asus laptop, a Toshiba 15" laptop, and a quad core
hombrew AMD on Asus main board running 4 ghz per core.
But my main computer is the 2011 MacBook 15.4" quad.
I love the unix OS. Spent a decade supporting SCO and BSD
and Novell 3xx and 4xx. Started out when networks were Thomas
Conrad 100 mbps coax on DOS and business software from IBM
and Macola.
Fun stuff but I was not involved in any coding other than being an
official beta for NT4. So I love learning and asking questions as you might
have guessed by now.

I assumed it was a name the system issued a USB to serial port device
and not reflected of the driver name.
On Linux, udev usually chooses the device name. On OS X, the driver
tells the OS what name it wants.
FTDI usually shows up as /dev/cu.usbserial-xxxxxxxx, where xxxxxxxx is
either the device's serial number or, for unserialized devices, a
location string that depends on which USB port your device is
connected to.
The Prolific PL2303 driver enumerates devices at /dev/cu.usbserial.
I think /dev/cu.PL2303-XXXXXXXX is associated with the open source
PL2303 project.
