Diamond Trackstar; Apple2-on-a-board for a PC



I have two questions governing the Diamond Trackstar if anyone knows:  
1. in the FAQ it speaks of a site that at one time had downloads of the 3 
varriants of the Trackstar software. Alos it talks of a fellow who wrote a 
improved version of one utility for it. Are these totally lost or, does anyone 
out there still have a trackstar floppy or other software?

2.  on the upper right side of the Trackstar board is a 8 lin in line molex 
connector for the CGA input from the PC ( Looks to me this works similar to 
the color switch board on a PC Transporter and what you need is a wire to 
connect it to the PC EGA out.  I seriously doubt anyone has this wire these 
days and was wondering if anyone knew the pin-outs for the connector so I 
could build my own.

ok  a 3rd question:
the circuit board and ribbion wire thing you plug into the Floppy Controller 
of the PC, then into a 360k floppy and a output connector on the lower left of 
the Trackstar: Anyone know a source for these or again, pin outs and how the 
board works??

thanks
