The catch is that they're about $100 apiece (which is why they haven't been sold, I'd gather). If someone needs a proxy or lives (...) (25 years ago, 27-Dec-99, to lugnet.market.buy-sell-trade)

Is the IR tower cable straight-through or what? Tried to use the shipping version with our new Christmas 1.5 and the fit is so tight that it pushed 6 of 9 pins back through the connector on my laptop. The lesson is to use a better cable I think. (...) (25 years ago, 27-Dec-99, to lugnet.robotics)
