I need the parallel port interface cable for the external
floppy drive.
Anyone have one, or an old 2000 Handbook they want
to sell ?

Thanks, Richard S.

Richard,

Sorry, but my Gateway Handbook-486 is still being used, "Believe It Or
Not"!! Once per month I download the previous month's weather data from the
Davis WeatherLink, put it onto a floppy and "sneaker net" it over to the big
computer.

If my Handbook ever gives up the ghost, I'll make parts available, but the
little beast just keeps on keepin' on! Sorry to say, I need the floppy
drive cable. Those connectors look like some kind of IEEE lash up.

Keep trying. Try ebay?
