I was assuming that MMJ cables were as extinct/hard-to-find as the machines
that used them. I was about ready to open a VT-420 and rewire it with a DB-9
ribbon cable hanging out the back. I just found that you can buy MMJ cables
new at www.l-com.com for $3.55. They have adapters too. I'm guessing that
the MMJ to 9-pin adapter is wired for a MicroVAX rather than a PC, but it
looks like I might be able to open the adapter and rewire it to make a PC to
KDJ11 cable.
