Yes, but have you seen the price of IDC DD50 plugs?
Last time I needed
some, the standard 'Amphenol' 50 pin plugs (like overgrown Centronics
plugs) were a couple of pounds a time, but the DD50s were \pounds 17.00
or so...
Ouch! I've paid US$11.00 or so each (at Halted, in 1993), and
didn't grumble too much because at that price it still beat the hassle
of splitting a 50-wire flat cable to make it fit a solder-tail
connector.
