It's been a while since I've seen an XP system, but I think XP has
"HyperTerminal" as a standard piece of software.

If it's there, a few minutes spent learning how it works would solve
your problem.

Thanks, all. I'll look into hyperterminal.

After trying a Cygwin command or so like

cat /cygdrive/i

or however it appears after I get it in the mail.

I also have some actual dumb terminals in the closet. I don't know if they'd require a
crossover cable or not.
