I had the same problem I bought the interface for 295.00 I think. Then another
18.00 for the cable (a generic one doesnt work neither does the mindstorm one )
& 69.00 For Robolab 2.5. I got everything working but I didnt like its
performance. It had a noticeable pause after every command. So Im probably
going to try to sell or trade it.
I bought at
http://www.legoeducation.com/store/
9751 interface
9768 cable
Mindstorms for schools cd-rom
I also found
http://www.bricklink.com/search.asp?q=9751
Hay Youre in luck they dont have the interface but they have the cable
Search for: Control lab
LEGO Serial Cable for PC (W979768)
Or
LEGO Serial Cable for Mac (W979769)
Or follow link and go to the second page

HTH
If anyone is interested I would let the system go including software for 235.00
us
Or 200.00 if you dont need the AC Adapter (W979833)
Everything is like new and I have the original box, manual & Documentation
I can e-mail a picture upon request
