Buy one homemade or make one yourself. I have one that costs $18.00 -
negative, you can't use it on pc's that have MHz's that divide by 25 (so,
you can't use it on that 400MHz beauty that I have in my living room). What
I do is I keep a very ancient PC around to use it for -- a PS/2. I have been
able to get it working with anything as fast as a 486/66, though, and it
would (I imagine) work on anything as high as a P120 (minus PCs which divide
by 25 in the MHz column). The graphlinks from TI don't have this problem
because of a special built-in chip. Note: You can't use the graphlink
software to link the homade cables up (but I can't see why you would for asm
programs anyways); use Cal.
