As a consequence asking for a LapLink cable you end up with a parallel cable which of course not only cannot work with the serial ports but can potentially damage your QL.But a moments real thought about this would lead to conclude that you cannot connect a parallel 'D' cable to a serial one because the parallel cables are male to male and the serial ones are female to female.

Me it would dead in the tracks but SOME laplink cables are actually extension cables which means that they are pin-to-pin D-25 female to female so others it may not ;-)
