Just buy an adapter at any PC computer store. If they don't have one to go from the Logitech directly to the 25 pin, get one that goes to 9 pin, then 9-25 pin. (My GlidePoint came with an adapter to go to 9 pin) Jean Klos A1200, 50 mhz '060, 34 meg, 1 gig Seagate Hawk SCSI-2, Happy, happy, joy, joy!
