RE: I have a origanal Black Mac TV with remote.

Check out ebay too...lots of s-video cables there cheap...like $2 shipped.
Check out auction # 201071360268 for an example.  Others in that price range
you're probably looking at direct ship from China...  S-video is pretty much
old technology these days...can't really even find a new TV with an s-video
input any more, so if anything, that should depress prices on cables...

S-video cables generally go for less than ADB ones do, at least on eBay.
Newegg has some for ~$5. People seem to think ADB cables are worth more just
because they were necessary for macs and because there are apple branded
ones (i.e. they use apple's cable symbols on the plugs).

Thrift Store Find

2014-08-23 Thread Wesley Furr 
Keep your eye out at thrift stores...you never know what you might find.  I
dropped by a local one today that I hadn't visited in quite a while.  They
have a pegboard thing with all sorts of cables cheap...I usually end up
buying a few that I don't need...but I might some day!  I couldn't believe
my eyes when I was looking over what they had and saw an LC IIe card
breakout cable!  50 cents!  :-)  For those that don't know what the big deal
is, those things seem to be going for like $45 on ebay.

They also had a few S-Video cables, which as discussed, also work for
keyboard/ADB cables...so that would be another place to look for those in
need...even cheaper than ebay!  Or most likely so...
