I know from personal experience that the null modem cable works well with the built in RS 232 handler. You just need to write a simple terminal program used on both computers. Alternatively, about 30 years ago I, with one of the Commodore engineers, experimented with using the 6529 8 bit parallel port back to back with good results. You'll need to write your own version of the Kernal RS 232 handler that will work for 8 bit parallel. Not that difficult once you disassemble the RS 232 code in the Kernal.
