Anyone know where D-shell connectors first appeared on equipment?
Interesting thread going on in a local group at the moment about why SCART [1]
sockets are so horrible and nasty (prone to breaking pins, difficult to line
up, prone to falling out etc.) and why something better, like a D-shell
connector, wasn't chosen instead.
SCART was originally known as PERITEL and originated in France.
Make of that what you will :)
