Glad I'm not the only one ;)

So just so I understand, if I get the cable I can just tell the IDE that it is a Arduino/Genuino Uno and it will still work? And the cable is able to do all the same functions, upload the bootloader and software code as a 'full' Uno?

Sorry for being dense, I'm just trying to figure out what the cable does/doesn't do vs. the Uno since there seems to be more tutorials for me to read on how to use the Uno.

To upload new software to the BlueSaab module the ftdi cable is enough.

Here is some reading on how to burn a bootloader. https://www.arduino.cc/en/Hacking/Bootloader?from=Tutorial.Bootloader
