That'd be sweet, but don't go out of your way.

Yes but you used fancy, antiquey terminology and my feeble mind was confused.

I used one to configure Cisco shit.  The others were for customers.  A couple that operate a plasma cutting table and some to configure fuel controllers at a gas/cng station that I set up.

Yup, indeed they do.  And that's a good thing since serial ports are getting hard to find!

I'll be doing something like this on Monday, helping someone get a parallel printer working on windows 8, if i can.

Ugh, it might be less painful to buy a new printer!

Should be possible as long you can find drivers that work...

You're right, I find it very useful indeed actually!
