I recently finished a four player adapter for my 1000, and I agree with
the previous response's pinouts. As far as the ground pins on the parallel port
are concerned, using pin 25 is fine on the 500/2000, but on the 1000, it is
the RESET signal. You can connect the ground wires to any of pins 14-22 on
the 1000, and any of 17-25 on the 500/2000. There are no other differences
between the two connectors (except of course for the DB25 gender).
