Re: Id card readers

I have used this model magnetic stripe reader before:

though not purchased from this vendor. It worked well. I used the USB
interface version which I found easier to use than a keyboard wedge version.
This was on an XP Professional OS. It might be worth testing a USB model 
before
a lot of them just to be sure there are no driver issues, especially if 
using an older
Operating system.

Tennessee State University is in the process of implementing Innovative.  We 
need to purchase a machine that will read the stripe on the ID cards. In the 
venacular, I believe this is called a "swipe machine" .  I would appreciate 
any recommendations you may have for this equipment.
