Take a look at this picture. That's a home-made Garmin/serial data cable made from an old Palm cradle and an expired gym card. Tidy job, got me feeling really l33t and hardwarehackytastic. So what's wrong with this picture? Why am I not a smiley little pumpkin tonight?
I mean, it's a nice job....
The connectors are all 100%...
Fits a treat into the eTrex...
But never do hardwarehacky on one hour's sleep...
(I'm going to kill that mouse)
If you said "That modern laptop doesn't have a serial port! Silly munky!" you get a gold star and a big ice cream sundae and everything.
