[Coco] Cassette Cable

[Joe Grubbs]

+1 on Steve's message. The DIN connectors, 1/8" plugs, the cable itself, and the labor to assemble far exceeds $6. I have an original Tandy one that I'd sell for more than that.

I'd be surprised if one can be built for $6 unless you already had a stock of the needed connectors and wire. Buying single connectors and wire by the foot is much more expensive than in bulk. Given that a cable like this is required for Cassette Data transfer, I personally think the $15 from Cloud 9 is a bargain. And of course there's ebay. Shipping can add up fast too.
