Hehe... this is hilarious fellow Zoomers!
I ordered the serial cable for the modem connection last tuesday, and was
told it would be in on friday. Well, I got two null modem cables on friday!
Not what I expected and apparently these things aren't even supposed
to be shipping yet!
BTW, using 9-25 pin and null modem adapters works nicely to turn the cables
I did get into whatever I needed them to be!
