I'm looking for a Centronics parallel to RS-232 protocol converter, (with or without a buffer) for a decent price. Does anyone have any recommendations? I glanced through a recent Byte, and those that existed in mail order ads were all $150+, a price I find hard to fathom for what I naively regard as a simple bit of hardware. [The Byte in question was the one with the do-it-yourself converter, but, alas, I'm strictly a software type. (The author's estimate of parts there was $35. BTW, if anyone in the Denver area is interested in a little money... let me know.)] Andrew -- Andrew Burt University of Denver Department of Math and Computer Science UUCP: {hao!udenva, nbires}!isis!aburt CSNet: aburt@UDENVER (NOT udenva, as above...)

Hello, My name is Bevan Ting. I'm from Sydney, Australia. I know I should have mail to you directly, but somehow I have trouble mailing it. Anyway, if you go out and buy any copy of A+ magazine, you'll find that there's a lot of Parallel-Serial cables that you can buy for less than $100. I hope this helps. Regards, Bevan Ting
