[ILUG] [OT] Parallel to IDE cable

[Martin Donlon]

Where I was working during the summer we had several backpack units for
CD Drive's. Basically it's a board with a parallel connector at one end
an IDE connector on the other, as well as a 12v input and hd power
outputs. Don't have a clue where to get them put Radionics or Peats might
be a good bet.

Long live the confused,
                  Akawaka.
