Casio CZ/ VZ/ FZ - Pro Series

I have heard that the "game ports" may have issues with complex MIDI stuff. 
For instance, on my older computer I was not able to MTC sync using the 
game port, once I got a dedicated MIDI interface it all worked.

Ebay is a good suggestion... I scored a PC MIDI Flyer (older parallel port 
interface from MOTU) for $15 shipping included!
