Hi all --
Picked up an interesting old "laptop" -- a GRiDCase 1537E. This is a
Tempest-hardened devicewith (I believe) a 386 processor. Also looks to
have an electroluminescent display. Inside there isn't a single exposed
wire or circuit board, so any debugging I might need to dowill be a fun
prospect. At any rate, I didn't get the AC adapter with this thing and
it's got an odd connector that I'm not familiar with. See here:

The connector's abit over 1cm in diameter with three oddly-spaced pins.
I'dlike to build areplacement assuming I can work out the pinouts (and
find/fabricate a mating connector). Anyone know anything about this
machine?Any ideas where to find such a connector?
Thanks,
Josh
