I'd like to see that mac laptop with a parallel port. Apple has, to my knowledge, never used a parallel port on _any_ mac, much less a laptop. They used an RS422 serial connection for printing in the good ol' days of the original Macintosh, and eventually migrated from there to USB for printer attachment. There were some old mac desktops with DB25 SCSI connectors, though. > As to the serial ports not available, you should have gotten a kit that > connects those serial headers on the mother board to the DB9 connector, Dell currently has our bid, and that's an extra item that must be ordered. Maybe the non-education/government stuff is different. -Jason kg4wsv _______________________________________________ Xastir mailing list [email protected] http://lists.xastir.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/xastir
