I'm talking to you now on a Hayes modem connected to my macplus.
The cable is
1.) a min-8 to DIN-9 (old mac standard) adapter  connected to
2.) a radio shack joystick extension cable connected to
3.) a 25 pin connector soldered in the following pattern:
    2 brown  (joysitck pin 5)
    3 white  (joystick pin 9)
  +-4 black  (joystick pin 7)
  | 7 both gray and orange (joystick pins 3, and 8)
  +-20
   Whenever I solder up a cable, I write the wiring diagram on the cable
   shield, so I can answer questions like this, without having to take the
   cable apart!
