Software : EQMOD, StellariumScope, ASCOM (all free),
Hardware: You should be able to plug that cable into the bottom of the hand controller and the other end into your PC via the USB to serial thing. On the hand controler you select something like ' PC Direct mode'
Get hold of a wireless game pad ( to control the mount) and you are away. I once used a USB Guitar from Guitar hero to control the mount, so try that it you want! You program the buttons in EQMOD.
You can upgrade the cable later if you like.
