    Anyone got a Shuttle Parallel port?

    I've been having a bit of a nightmare trying to get a USB converter cable for my parallel only laserjet printer when I remembered there was an 'add-on' port available for the shuttle

    Don't suppose anyone has one of these for sale? I'm needing it pretty quick!
    (sorry if this is unsuitable in here mods, I just figured as it's a pretty uncommon request it'd get a better airing here ).

    I have done a quick search and have come up with these web sites:

    Dabs.com has a few in stock for a tenner

    This one is french but ships to the UK and is in English

    Thanks Timmy, I was hoping someone here might have one for sale as I could save a few quid and probably get it quicker too!

    Never mind, found somewhere well cheap

    Funnelhead - got it from Micro International something or other, via Kelkoo search.

    Don't go with Micro Direct though, TERRIBLE service - sent me something which got bashed in the mail. I returned it to them and they had the cheek to say they wouldn't take it as it wasn't re-sellable. Well duh, it was their fault
