No windows machines in my house. Mac options?

None. But just get a cheap laptop or tower that runs Windows from the local thrift store, even if it has 512 RAM it will fill the bill. Just use it for that one application.

I read in the #95 post how to make the rs232 cable I need for an S2000 machine. Where do I get the other end of the cable (the black end).

If you can, tear apart an old desktop PC. Links to my post here: http://newlifegames.net/nlg/index.php?topic=11959.32   You can cut the male end off any serial cable as long as it's 9 pin. The little molexes you can get from an old clone PC they can 1 2 or 3 pin. If you use a 3 pin one, you have to use a 2 pin by default for the other 2 pins. Read, read, read.
