 If it works, you can triumph and do a victory danse in front of the 
 whole class!
 
+Make sure that both UART devices work on the same way.

 You'll quickly discover than newlines do not work properly. To fix
 this, when the userspace application sends \verb+"\n"+, you must send
 \verb+"\n\r"+ to the serial port.

 We would like to maintain a counter of the number of characters
 written through the serial port. So we need to implement two
