    Did you ever find out more about this?

   I just picked up one of one yesterday with the cables. The other end of
the cable that fits the DB-25 connector has a male Centronics style
connector on it. The SCSI port has a feed-through type terminator on it.
Attached to that is a cable that has a micro-SCSI connector on the other
end of it. FWIW the box says "same functionality as 88395".

No, I haven't found anything out about it at all. I haven't really been
looking though, as I'm working on some other things with my Apple IIe. To
tell you the truth, I've been putting off working with my HP 150/110/110+
stuff because I want to be able to devote some serious focus time to them.
My 150 needs to be re-setup I think, and that'll be a bit complicated for me
since I haven't set one up from scratch before. I have more manuals for it
than I know what to do with, so I shouldn't have to hammer you with to many
questions.

By the way, I found a new disk for the 150 Touchscreen:

Advance Link Master#3 (45431-13003) A.01.01 2435
Upload A.01.02
Monitor 3000 A.02.04

Are you familiar with this bit of software? I'm assuming that it's comm
software for linking a 110/110+ to the 150 but I'm not sure.

I also picked up a 110+ with some manuals but no software. I'm not sure if
there even was software for the 110 series, since they're ROM based systems.
