If this is a true nul-modem cable it should work. You can find directions to the latest software on the club 100 web site. Configuring the ports may be a little tricky depending on your computer and operating system. Glad to have you aboard.

I did not become aware of these machines until just a few months ago when I was watching some vintage computer reviews on Youtube and came across a video review of the Model 100. I became fascinated enough with the machine that I finally purchased one off of ebay and have been absurdly distracted by it since it arrived earlier this week (much to the chagrin of my wife). Anyway, I have been spending a great deal of time on the club website in order to learn the best way to get started with the machine and determine what the best setup might be for a newbie like myself. While I continue working through that process, I thought that a good starting point might be a null modem cable so that I can connect with my Linux-based netbook. I already have an unused USB-to-serial cable, and a DB25 male connector, so I went out on Amazon in search of a DB9 female connector. I discovered that the price of the connector was almost the same as a completed null-modem cable and was wondering if a prefabricated cable (such as this one: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B000083K2R/ref=wl_it_dp_o_pC_nS_ttl?_encoding=UTF8&colid=3QIIL8OEWJF44&coliid=I36MV5UPCCATS9&psc=1) would work with a Model 100, or if the cable described on the club website is wired in a way that is different than these prefabricated cables. Thank you in advance for any direction that you can provide to me. :) Matt Edwards
