Bill.......I have two machines both using GET and needed a second block...I can't remember the price, but it wasn't too bad....putting the Windows version on the same machine with DOS is supposed to be seamless....also, the stuff that has been left off for now seems to be the least important.

Bill and Others,

Just a tid bit you won't like. Unlike with Dos and Windows 95
you cannot connect a printer to a dongle under NT and have it
work. You have to dedicate the port to printing or dongle
but never both. I recommend getting another parallel port.
Same is true with Zip Drives, Jaz Drives, and Parallel port tape
drives....

This is like moving back into the dark ages, but you might consider an A-B switch to the block from the parallel port on both computers. As I recall some are automated these days. I don't think you want to go buy a spare block which TTI sells for (I think) $1,000.

Hi Bill- I can confirm that the security block is a non-issue if it's on the same machine as the DOS version.
