Old Apple stuff for grabs...   
Having a clear out here has revealed a pile of old cables, I thought I'd
offer them to you lot first, before trying eBay, and then Freecycle.

There are three of what look like AppleTalk network splitters, a small
box with an Apple serial lead attached, and two serial connectors (three
pins).

Two network cables, I think, three pins again, obviously for using with
the splitters.

Two ADB curly leads (for keyboards).

1 Apple printer lead (8 pins)

An AsanteTalk network adapter, to convert AppleTalk to Ethernet
(complete with PSU).

What looks very much like a PowerPrint lead, an 8 pin connector to
printer serial. I also have a set of floppy discs, and a registration
number for PowerPrint.

A 1m VGA to BNC lead

A 1m BNC to BNC lead

5x 0.5m 25 pin to 50 pin SCSI cables

2x 0.5m 50 pin to 50 pin SCSI cables

And a very weird one with a 50 pin Centronics one end, and a very
strange square plug the other (almost looks like the very old Apple
network connector)

Some old CD ROMs

2x Myst
2x Daedalus Encounter Disc 3
Daedalus Ecounter Disc 1
Guiness book of records 1994
Grolier Encyopedia V6 and V7
DK World Ref Atlas.
Mac Performa CD - came with my old 5200.

Nothing wanted for them, other than cost of postage, or a donation to my
sister's church.

Email addy is valid.

I think that's a scanner cable - ADF or something like that.

Thanks Jack. No, Adrian spotted it, it's a SCSI to HDI-30 cable for old
Mac Laptops.

Hi Andy

I'm trying to retrieve data on old archiving systems and apart from the
curly keyboard leads and PowerPrint stuff I'm very interested in all of
the cables you have. I'd like to have the Performa CD as well if that's
OK. Any idea how much you'd like me to send you if they're still
available?

I have a Mac G3 Lombard laptop that can use the weird HDI-30 cable :)

Thanks

Keith

Yes, last week, just checked and it got sent, and didn't bounce back.

Try emailing me, this address is valid.

Cheers.
