[net.micro.mac] DIN-8 <-> DB-9 adapters

phil@sivax.UUCP (Phil Hunt) (06/16/86)

I just upgraded my mac to a FULL mac+ including new logic board.  They
give you 1 (one) din-8 to db-9 adapter cable.  Most mac people need
two of them.   No one around here has any extras or adapter cables in stock.

WHERE CAN I GET ONE???

You can get mini-8 to db-9 cables for $19 from MacConnection (1-800-MAC-LISA).
I called them on a Wednesday afternoon and had the cables in hand on Friday.
I am told that you can get the same kind of cable from $17 from BMUG (the
Berkeley Mac Users Group).
