There's one negative report already with W7 64-bit:
https://sourceforge.net/apps/phpbb/adtpro/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=64
I realize now it could be either of rxtx's or the USB driver's fault.
rxtx has 64 bit support in the upcoming release, which was due a month
or two ago.  I've already got the prerelease rxtx version integrated
into the ADTPro build, but will wait to pull the trigger until they do.
