MCP2200 looks like a valiant contender to the FT232R series, both permit GP=
IO
pin programming from the host which is interesting for a number of reasons.=
 The
price is also very interesting for MCP2200 imho. Unlike the FT232R the MCP2=
200
seems to provide GPIO access from Linux drivers too.

Has anyone done something *other* than serial RS232 to USB conversion using
these chips?

The way back to the easy peasy IO interfacing, lost when parallel ports
disappeared, seems to have reappeared. It took a while but, as they say, be=
tter
later than never.
