Buying a new keyboard >is not the optimal solution... You may want to check at local audio/video supply shops for Super-VHS connectors. While I cannot say for certain that the parts are identical, I can state that I have used an ADB keyboard cable as a temporary Super-VHS cable from VCR to TV - the plugs fit perfectly - and vice versa [Super-VHS cable as ADB keyboard cable] and I can't imagine any reason why a Super-VHS female couldn't play the part of an ADB female jack. Of course, if I'm wrong, I'm sure someone will let me know... -- ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ "Must think...bubble pipe will relax me and I think..." - Flaming Carrot clarson@ux.acs.umn.edu AOL:Crowbone
