What cable to buy?

Hey everyone. Need to do some data logging on my 2.8 and don't have a serial port on my laptop. I know, great right.

So what options do I have for USB cables?

This is what I have. Bought one about 6 years ago or so and it still works perfect. The 12 pin aldl cable with USB connector.

I use the Moates ALDU1 "ALDL Xtreme" cable, it has never let me down.

I'm also going to move this to the DIY PROM forum where it's more appropriate.
