Seeing as everybody on here uses a computer I thought this might be of interest, and apply to other air gunners, looking for a Serial converter 9 pin to 25 pin I had a dig around in my computer cable box, and couldn’t believe the number of serial cables, connectors, converters, testers etc in there, and then some clever dick comes along and invents the USB connector and immediately all my box of bits is virtually redundant.

Now I have a box of USB connectors and I bet some one is waiting in the wings to jump on that.

I have 3 boxes of computer cables laying around here- most of which are almost useless (until you need to hook up an older device). Serial, parallel, networking, sound cards, custom cables for data transfer (i.e. for old old programs like LapLink), SCSI internal and external cables...

I like how you have the ribbon cable threaded through the middle.
Makes for a pleasant composition.

I guess it does cw but It's the easiest way to find what you want, tip the box onto the floor and dig out what you want.

I think I'll keep this photo then next time I will know what's in the box without raking it out.
