I'm sure one will turn up sometime in the future; knowing my luck someone
will give me another fully populated MINC next week :) And then I'll get
battered off the missus.
The DAC has one cable coming off it that terminates in a female D25, but the
previous owner didn't know what it was used for since he was given it by
someone else!

If one or both of the DECwriters that came with the bundle were used on the
MINC they'll have been serial anyway, so no need for an LPV11....
