Default Okay Any SoCal PC Gurus out there that want to help a fellow out?

First off I'm a mac man, BUT I have this cool Fujitsu Stylistic 1200 that I want to load Vag-Com on so I can always have it in the car... Problem is, well I'm kinda at a loss of how to do it. the unit has no floppy drive, but does have a data port (DB-9) and 2 pcmcia slots. Anyone want to help me out????


thanks!

Does it have parallel? If so, maybe you can use a ZIP drive too.

Default I have the Stylistic too..

You can use the Infrared port if you have another PC laptop to connect and beam the data too. You an also use a null modem cable or direct connect parallel cable to transfer the data across from another PC.

I did the direct parallel cable method to transfer the wireless PC Card network drivers over. So now, I just plug in my wireless network card whenever I need to pull data from the Stylistic to my other computers.
