Prolific 2303 vs. "Other" Nokia Serial<->USB cables

[K2e2vin]

I purchased a Nokia cable off of ebay; not knowing it didn't have a Prolific 2303 chip. I purchased it from that specific person because he was local to me and shipping would be fast. After trying to install generic Prolific drivers, I found it it was a Kingsun. I haven't figured out which wires are which, but it should still work, correct? Also, why is Prolific the preferred choice?

Thanks
