Okay, I found an image of the apron of an early P3 & it is using a DB9 RS232 sub d connector.

Does anyone know this can be adapted to the later CAT5/6 socket the newer K3s uses?

Subject: P3 history

I recently heard that early P3's (first gen ?) used a different P3-to-K3 cable than the last generation of P3-to-K3s's did.  Can anyone tell me anything about that?  And is there a fix for connecting an eary P3 to a late K3s?

Or was my leg being pulled? 🙂

Thanks,
