Hi,
 I'm looking to purchase a cable to hook up my LCIII to a PC for the
console. I did some reading and am entirely confused in regards to
hardware handshaking, voltages, etc. So, basically, does anyone know
exactly which type of cable I will need? I believe I still have a DB9
null modem adapter around, so I only need a Din8 -> DB9 cable.

Does this look OK? It doesn't specify any sort of handshaking, so I
figured I'd ask first.

Thanks.
