Parallel to parallel would be better, if PC parallel ports were
standardised. As they're not, Amiga Explorer uses serial. The advantage
of this is that it requires no software installation on the Amiga.
Because it uses the standard SER: setup, everything is installed and
setup up from the PC side. It works with ethernet too.
