Found one! Vetco here in Bellevue had a box of 'em... at the usurious
price of $9.50, but what can ya do?
At least I picked up some interesting 8-bit ISA cards for $1-$4 apiece,
namely:
- Silicon Valley ADP50 (IDE drives in PCs!)
- Kaypro NEC V20 accelerator/Z80 emulator card
- Kraft dual joystick adapter
- Ad Lib sound card

pin is very slightly
offset
from the other two pins.
Any thoughts where I can get one of these?
Actually, not too odd at all. Don't know about currently (as I've not
looked for a while) but these used to be quite common on office
equipment.
And... (if you did not see this coming) I think I have a spare or two
around... (gotta turn over *all* of those rocks!)
Bad ASCII art warning!

Looks something (nothing?) like this? eh?
If you don't turn one up local, let me know and I'll try to find one
to
send along with the other stuff...
