Hi Jerry,

Guess I should have been more specific.  :-)

The Mac in question is a 7200/120. So it uses ADB for the keyboard, 
mouse, etc. No USB port, and no PCMCIA slot

Looked for a Keyspan PCI card and found the SX Pro Serial Card -- 
sounds like just the ticket.

Now I just need to find one...  :-)

Thanks,
Rob
