where to find male IDE cable
« on: February 27, 2003, 09:06:39 pm »
Where can I find a male IDE cable?  I checked at work (best buy) and CompUSA, but didn't really check anywhere else.

I am planning to send all of my controls to a terminal block then through an IDE cable, then have another IDE cable coming from my interface so that I can easily switch control panels (I'm going to make a 4-player CP, probably this summer)  This way I can just connect the two IDE cables and the ground wires together and have an instant set-up.
Game programmers do not play games for a living.  Would you say a mechanic drives cars for a living?

you can get ribbon cable and a "snap on" male ide connector at Radio Shack
Oh, the memories of living on pizza subs and Dr Pepper...
