³ 8250 UART - bad
³ 16450 UART - OK for some speeds and single-tasking
³ 16550 and higher - good.

I remember getting my first 16550 and being so happy that I could finally
use my new 14.4k modem properly.  ;)
 
I do wonder now what UART these USB-to-Serial cables are using (or
emulating).  It must be something smaller than the original chipsets.
Based on experience, I strongly suspect they are in the OK to bad category,
unfortunately.
