Hi Nick,

The cable was fifty something dollars from Harvey Norman. The rather eager
young sales guy tried to sell me one for two hundred and twenty but
seriously! I guess that they wouldn't stock that kind of thing of there
weren't people willing to fork out that sort of cash for some cable and a
couple of plugs.

The 350 really does a great job on playback but I've been considering going
to a 5200 based card so that I can get MAME etc running nicely (and perhaps
experiment with transcoding to save space).


Regards
Marty
