[Hampshire] ls -l

Hi all I may be missing the obvious here but is there a way to have ls -l wait to see if more files are added to a directory? What I'm trying to do is restore from a tape backup and (for reasons I won't bore you all with) I want to see the output in a terminal as opposed to a file manager.

[Hampshire] Dell Flexbay cable

Does anyone know where to get either one of these cables or the motherboard end connector for it locally (to Portsmouth) or cheaply online? I've just migrated my desktop system across to a Dell Dimension 9100 that I had spare to get a bit of a performance boost (yes my kit is old!).
