x1541 cable - where to get...

Post by RTADash »

I read on Logic DeLuxe's site that C64 files to be transferred from a PC to a 1541 disk drive via an X1541 transfer cable, and was highly considering getting one. Does anybody know where I might be able to find one of these? I searched eBay in 3 languages and haven't come across it yet. Any help or searching is greatly appreciated. :)
Boulders are round.
Fireflies are square.

Some C64 shops should offers them: http://www.lemon64.com/?mainurl=http%3A ... genre%3D12
Alternatively, you could order the parts and solder one yourself. Here is a dispription of the XM1541 cable: http://sta.c64.org/xm1541.html
You probably want a XM1541 cable since a X1541 usually don't work well on modern computers.

I didn't try it myself, though, as I usually copy to a 1581 floppy disk which a usual PC controller can handle with a regular 3,5" drive.
