yorgle Posted November 7, 2016 Share Posted November 7, 2016 A few years back I was buying a lot of 8-bit stuff and in my pile of cables, I found this: It has a parallel port connector at one end, with two cables running from it- one to a female atari joystick port connector and the other to a bunch of header connectors- even a telephone jack. For the life of me, I can't recall what this was supposed to be used for. Does anyone here recognize it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+warerat Posted November 8, 2016 Share Posted November 8, 2016 It's an Amiga cable for MPDOS from the infamous "envious snake" atariksi. http://www.krishnasoft.com/sps.htm 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roydea6 Posted November 8, 2016 Share Posted November 8, 2016 I have one similar to this for the Atari line. I got it around 2004 and used it until the cheap laptop (Toshiba) quit on me and I put the cable away in storage. And alas now laptops don't have parallel ports any more.
