- Ah, but does the base A1200 come with the short ribbon cable that
- connects the motherboard to the drive, or do we have to scrounge one
- ourselves? Maybe George Robbins could give us a quickie explanation
- on whats required. Is a cable needed or does the motherboard have a
- right angle connector pointing to a slot where a drive slides right
- in and makes connection?
-
- How about one of you UK guys telling us what was required?
- I'll post in early December when I get mine if no one else has
- done it by then... :-(
