- I am not sure if this is a standard cable or not, though I would suspect that
- it isn't. (Somebody tell me I'm wrong, please!) At any rate, I am pretty
- sure you can get them from some of the C= mail order places like SSI and
- Software Hut. The file mailorder.places in /pub/rknop/comp.sys.cbm on
- ccosun.caltech.edu has the addresses of a bunch of places (and I will get the
- Software Hut address in there by tonight, hopefully).
