That's what I'll call it, since I don't
know the correct term Osborne
used. It's the plastic plug with pins that jumper the external video
card-edge port on an Osborne 1 portable. Without it, the Osborne
either goes into external video-only mode or, according to one doc I
read, it will damage the hardware.
One of my O1 machines is missing this part. Does anyone either have a
spare one or know of any plans out there to build your own?
It's insanely simple--just get an edge connector to fit the PCB, wire
straight across, top to bottom on all positions.
