IIRC, there were two "bright colored" cables -- one for parallel

I have an *8* headed "laplink" (lowercase L) cable but, IIRC,
they are just various combinations of connectors/genders and
pinouts (but still a serial cable).
Laplink had cables for the serial port, I
don't recall if it had a
parallel version that was reliable, as far as dos to dos data transfer.
I can't speak to the reliability of it, but it did indeed have a parallel
option, which of course required a different special cable. Never used it
here though.
