I have one of those but it's parallel-only at this point,  otherwise I'm real 
happy with it.  I can't use it at the moment because my server is down,  and 
that's where it plugged in.  I started to look at hooking it up to this 
laptop but never did get the whole way through configuring things that I'll 
end up having to take apart later...

Any of this stuff you don't get takers for I'll take off your hands.  I've 
been in the habit for a while now of trying to find people who use older 
stuff,  scrapping things out when I can't,  etc. and some of the people I 
know of who still use DOS-based software for CNC and other basic stuff might 
be interested in some of that.  It's partly why I have a garage a few blocks 
from here for all my stuff.    Those 486 and early Pentium boards I would 
still consider quite usable for those sort of apps.

I see a ZIP drive mentioned thre _and_ disks -- I have one that's SCSI,  no 
idea if it works or not,  but mostly that's because I never got around to 
getting any disks for it.

Video capture card?  Sounds like it might be fun to play with.  Works under 
linux,  right?
