My Series III does not currently have a good PCLINK2.PUB.SYS, but I have found one since I packaged it up that will be in the next version or I can send it as a SIMH tape to anyone who needs it.

I believe Stan provided the tools needed to do this in the ALLEGRO account in my setup, so it could be possible to use say Refelction to transfer that to a real 3000 with a tape drive and do the conversion from physical tape to virtual tape there. I have not tried this myself so I don't know how much work it would be to set up.

IIRC, it may have only worked on ATC ports on a Series II/III or at least wasn't commonly available on the HP-IB systems so it may be pretty rare as collectibles go.
