Negative Positive
Title: Functional but outdated
Review: The primary purpose of this cable is to allow the user to connect two computers via serial port for file (and sometimes printer) sharing. While this still works, only DOS 6.22 and Windows 9x support it (under INTERLNK or "Direct Cable Connection"), it's very slow, and it's a whole lot of trouble. I recommend purchasing a low-cost Ethernet or phone-line networking product instead--both are much faster, easier to set up, and will work with (and between) many operating systems.Overall recommendation: purchase this cable only if you *must* fileshare with an MS-DOS based system and cannot install a network card.
