don't forget the user port ! - i used to drive a centronics printer from my
8032  in this way with handshaking - so if your pc parallel port can be
configured to accept data coming in it'd be quite easy(??)   ( as a mac man
i've got no advice i can give about that end of things ! )  - i've got the
8032 listing to hand if it's wanted .
