OK, in case you use that horrible cable, you described below. Far better
will be using the DB-9 <-> DB-9/Powerconn. and a DB-9 <-> Mac-ser. (#3).
All more conveniently situated and more solidly constructed. Extra costs:
$5 ??

Agree too. You can buy here from a local Mac-dumpstore the Wacom PenPartner
or the Artpad, brandnew sealed, in package with Art Dabbler SE and Kai's
Photo Soap SE for euro 15-30 (1 euro = 1,15 US$).
Very funny is the pen UP-501-00A (20 euro).
Beware: New pens from Wacom cost here around 85 euro ($95)

Use that last one PLUS the DB-9 <-> Mac-ser. See above.

For US-listers, there was (a few weeks ago) a Quadlist-member on the
Swaplist offering all of this.
