DB25F TO IDC26 parallel port connector

[Yotch]

Anybody know where I can get one of these cheaply? They seem to be either very expensive or impossible to find. Currently it looks as though I will have to buy the connectors and make it up myself.

In a old pc shop you find it on a old computer.

otherwise make your own.

@Robertvv: I did look at one of those old parallel port cards but I think that the ribbon cable had less than 26 wires. They still supply these cables with some of the modern dual parallel port cards such as the Sunix and with some motherboards but nobody seems to sell them separately. Apparently you used to be able to purchase a similar cable for the Shuttle - a PC8.

@Esquire: Thanks for the suggestion. I should have asked when I picked up some of your awesome specials last week.
