What happens when you plug it in?  I had some USB devices which didn't
claim to have Linux support yet worked fine as simple file systems.  I
suppose the microscope might have fancy controls which work via the
USB interface, but if the only USB purpose is to read files, it might
be good enough.

Sounds like a pretty neat toy tho, and  best of all, it sounds like it
might be actual work-related for you.  Good luck.
