I was just going to suggest the same thing, but I
see you (Tez) are
going the FDADAP route; more convenient for sure.
But the majority of the 34- and 50-pin signals actually line up 1 to
1 when aligned pin 34 to pin 50; as a matter of fact I have a system
that uses the same 34-pin cable to connect to both, with just a
jumper or two to select 5 or 8" (the index signal is one IIRC).
I've still got a couple of the Microsolutions "adapter cards" with 50-
and 34-pin headers. They work in reverse as well.
