Getting it to work on a current computer is another matter. Finding a complete system should not be that difficult. I remember it being around $300, not $500. (Another Toolworker gave me Piano Lessons for my 50th birthday, completely unaware that the Miracle was in it.)

The PC version has a specific serial port which was only used by the Miracle Piano, and as far as I know, it could only be used with that serial cable.
