I picked up one of the 15 pin to 25 pin RS232 adapter shells (about two inches long), and did all the cross-wiring in that. Of course, the 23 pin connector is a little loose, but it works fine. When (not if) you get your A2320 display enhancer, you can toss the adapter. The NEC 3D will connect directly to the 2320. The display enhancer is the reason I purchased the NEC, and they work great together. - Robert Mitchell -- UUCP: rmm20@juts.ccc.amdahl.com DDD: 408-746-8491 USPS: Amdahl Corp. M/S 205, 1250 E.
