If anyone is really interested in trying to get Indy cams to work with
older systems, I can supply some of the funky Cisco 60-pin cables. These
are from some V.35 clone cables we had made up some time ago, but are now
obsolete.
The IndyCam has a fixed cable that ends in this male connector. What we'd
need are female sockets. On the other hand, if we're adapting excess
cameras, given the thinness of the cable, I'm sure it would make more
sense to cut and rewire the cable. They're not using all the pins.

Hmmm...I guess I was not thinking. Anyway, let me see what I can find.
Cisco AS51 Edgeservers are obsolete now, and we have bunches of them. The
dead ones generally get trashed, as nobody at 3com wants to fix them.
Maybe I can grab a bunch, even if I have to punch holes in the center of
the boards (security, I suppose).

Now that this thread is winding down anyway, I should point out that it's
off-topic. :) Can you guys move on to something else?
Hooking a QuickCam to a C64 sounded like a pretty neat hack, BTW.
