I've just bought a MIDI keyboard, and the midi interface has to be plugged
into either the modem port or the printer port on the Mac. Naturally, I
already have a modem and a printer plugged into these ports, and was
resigned to forever unplugging leads, till a PC-owning friend told me about
port splitters, i.e. devices to enable 2 leads to be plugged into the same
port. Do such things exist for the Mac, and if so, where could I get one
and how much might it cost?
