I have an old PDA, an X-10 transmitter, and a camera, that need serial
ports. I use a 3-way (DB-25) serial switch to choose which device is
connected.

Kiwanis has serial-to-USB adaptors for $2 or $5 (I forget). The one we got
works in linux, but we have serial ports.

Re resp:3: Linux and OS X are not really related on the device driver
level. OS X is based on BSD, but I think it uses a different kernel
than any open-source BSD version.
