What would be the best way to replace the BOB-LPT stuff?
The most direct replacement for the PCI parallel port card would be a
Mesa 5i25. (or 6i25 if you are PCIe)
That looks just like a parallel port card, and hooks up in exactly the
same way.
Potentially up could add a back-panel adaptor for the second DB25 port
and have one connector for the lathe and one for the mill.
true, BUT those db25 connectorrs are a pain to route through walls
etc, bulky connectors. So I like the idea of just using a cat 5 cable
since they are easier to snake along stuff. (they are thinner too).
also cat5/6 is available in more lengths, and less expensive.
I see every other reply is saying "7i92" but I think your situation
looks more 5i25-shaped.
