Mattias,

I have the cable you need and I live in Falkenberg.
Look me up in the phone directory and give me a call.

Hälsningar,

Thanks for the replay!!
The Keyspan USA-28 would be nice to have if i want to connect to à newer computer. But i also have older macs so à interconnect to round serial would be enough. But still no luck finding that....
