    I'm fed of having to move the whole console closer when I want to play it. Let me know a price, and if its not too excessive, then I'll take it.

  3. Although this isn't as helpful, you ought to be able to easily hack up something like what Kyuusaku linked to, especially if you've got access to any amount of pre-USB Mac keyboards or mice.

    But yeah, I feel your pain, but then again I'm lazy, so I just sit really close to the TV.

    Thats handy, didnt realise it was a semi-standard ish connection. No macs here, so can't really hack one up, but i'll be getting a cable now. Cheers for the link

  6. Most pre-USB Apple keyboards and mice were ADB (eg, everything except the earliest macs), which used s-video jacks. For example, the crappy AppleDesign Keyboard will give you the material for a six foot long S-video extension cable (I've got one made from a Dr Pepper'ed keyboard). The mice IIRC only actually used 3 of the wires, so they're pretty much useless for this purpose.

  7. Oh, right, my bad. I just thought about suggesting a PC PS/2 cable as well, but those are pretty much the same. Either way, the mini-DIN connectors shouldn't be a problem to find at all in a decent electronics shop. Just bring your PCE pad for referance.
