Confirmation bias...              Anyway, there are a few potential problems with the DMA parallel port       (not exclusive to Model 90):       -the connected device does not understand the protocol       -low-level software/driver incompatibility       -configuration/user error (setting the link to ECP or EPP...)              But data transfers between two PS/2s with Type 3 controllers should be       relatively trouble-free and pretty fast too!              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
