subject: Cable to Transfer from 1541 to IBM PC Parallel

RA>I have successfully made up te cable that works with X1541 (a far
 RA>superior program to the other transfer program!).  It worked, but jeez
 RA>- it's slow!  :(

 RA>It would be faster to transfer the files using a null modem cable and 2
 RA>terminal programs!!

 RA>Of course, an even better way to move files between your 64 and PC is
 RA>to get 64NET!  :))
 
Its good to hear that the cable works when made properly. I don't mind that
it is slow, I am willing to wait patiently on the
transfers. My own attempts at making the cable have been frustrating and
unsuccessful, I am wondering if you are willing to loan your working cable,
make another working cable (I would obviously
reimburse you for your outlays) or if you don't require your cable anymore
sell me the existing one.

If you are interested, please leave me a private message with a contact
number or address on Way Out West BBS (02) 6288888 or 500cc Formula One BBS
(02) 5504317.

P.S. Can modems still be purchased for C64's? If so where and what cables,
terminal programs would I need?

P.P.S. What is 64net (network for C64?) and what hardware and software do
you need to set it up and where can these be obtained.

Thanks,

Ben.
