Another option would be to buy a Mac modem cable, which will be MiniDin 8=
=20
to DB25 most likely. Then get a LapLink cable. These cables have both a=20
DB25 and a DB9 on each end, and work great for connecting PCs together.

The advantage of this combo is that Mac stores probably have the Mac modem=
=20
cables and PC stores will probably have the LapLink cable, so you can=20
suceed without having specialty shops around.

Take care,
