	The last time I needed cables I called "System Connection", a
	mail order house in Provo ( 1-800-825-1895 ) They shipped me a
	6 ft DB25 - 50 pin SCSI cable, and a Din-8 to DB9 converter
	for $17.50 including shipping & COD.

They have ADB extension cables 6" for $5.50, Din-8 to Imagewriter 1
( 6" ) for $5.00, and DB9 to Din-8 ( they call it a "reverse adapter"
) for $5.00. I got these prices from the back of Macintosh News,
August 7th.
