ValkerieSilk #1 Posted February 18, 2015 I have limited space on my desk and would like to stack the Atari mod on top my Adam... Has anyone made an extension cord (ribbon) of sorts for this purpose? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Has anyone made an extension cord (ribbon) of sorts for this purpose? short answer, no. BUT! why not; some of the aftermarket serial/parallel port units, the 80column unit, used a cable to connect. would "assume" that a straight thru 60 pin ribbon cable with appropriate ends should work. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NIAD #4 Posted February 18, 2015 Would have to be Male on one end and Female on the other... so not as simple as a straight thru male-to-male ribbon cable like those made by Orphanware and Eve Electronics for their hardware add-ons. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
adamcon #5 Posted February 19, 2015 Can you make this for me? Would LOVE too, but not so much. That is beyond my expertise; me, ribbon cables, and termination ends are not friends. Seems easy enough BUT it is not. Maybe you could find a company on the internet that makes cables on demand. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
