[Oeva-list] Null modem/crossover cable adapter needed

[Ron Jayasuriya]

Here's a super geeky request for the die-hard techies out there:

I am trying to connect an Agilent Data Logging device to a laptop using a 9 pin serial port.
Standard DB9 connector, but...

The pinout shows the following pins reversed: 2/3, 4/6, 7/8, with pins 1,5 and 9 unchanged.

Yes, I am sure that I can order it, but I thought I would see if anyone has one I could use first (even if only while I wait for one to be shipped to me).  I have no idea how common these might be, but they don't sell them at Radio Shack or Frye's.

If you have such an item, and will loan it to me for a few days, you will automatically be entered in the Techie of the Year contest.  Hmm, what would first prize be?

Thanks for reading.
