Well, I've taken a guess at what you're replying to... Let me know if I'm way off. :) I was referring to these specific BNC connectors on the Apple II. It's interesting, though, that someone would use BNC to carry power. On the other hand, there are some points where the huge variety of plugs available (which carry the same signal) is ridiculous. Sometimes I think the world would be better off using, for instance, banana plugs, for everything. (Don't cross the wires! -- unless you really mean it.)
