Curiously, we gained a spare such cable with a replacement UPS at work
today. It comes with it's own driver for Linux on the APC CD-ROMs. You
know when a cable needs a driver that the Tao of computing has been lost
already.

I have a load of ancient PCs, some with serial, and/or parallel ports on
cards, rather than the motherboard. Would not raiding some old PCs offer
another solution, or is this for the laptop?
