Csabo: That's the Windows port of cbm4linux plus the necessary kernel level drivers to get things going under Windows NT based operating systems. It's currently in a non public alpha stage.
SVS: you will not be able to use the cable under DOSBox or any other DOS emulators for that matter. Even if you solve the problem of the inaccessible parallel port, the serial disk I/O requires very accurate timing which can not be guaranteeed for any programs running in user mode. So the only solution is to write a kernel level driver running in ring 0 mode of the processor.
