I am back at the old homestead for the holidays, and decided I need to
sort thru the mounds of crap in my parents basement that needs to get
pitched, moved to New York, or given/sold off. I uncovered lots of things
I either forgot about or never new I had, like DOS (not Bill's) for the
Interdata model 4 machines, and a 150 pound chunk of Univac core.
Anyway, I found 3 new looking game port extenders for the Apple 2, by a
company called Scooter. These look like a 2 foot bit of ribbon cable, with
a 16 pin DIP header on one end and a 16 pin ZIF DIP socket on the other,
with a bit of foam tape. Apparently, if you decide your Apple joystick
cord is 2 feet too short, this thing comes to the rescue.
Does anyone need one of these things? If so, I have three (one per, if I
get multiple requests, please!) available for postage. Of course, trade
for equally stupid non-micro junk is just as welcome!
Please reply tomorrow, as I leave for New York on the first, in the
morning.
Also in the news, I may have found a big "B". More as the story develops.
