Hi Jay
 Although, it is an interesting machine at $10, it isn't
quite so interesting at $125. I do most the same thing
now with my laptop when working on my Nicolet. I connect
the serial to the Nicolet. When I actually have to read a
punch tape, I made a cable to connect the laptop's parallel
port ( bi-directional ) to a high speed tape reader I have.
I keep the tape images in files and can even write to
floppies, just like the machine on eBay ( wow! ).
Dwight
