Speaking of Zenith cables… does anyone recognise this?

I just found it, stored with a similarly removed Model M2 cable. This one's no IBM, though. It's unbranded, and could well belong to the Z-150 now in Go-kart's possession. Can any fellow Zenith users ID it?

No way! I recognise the strain relief as being Zenith-like. Fingers crossed that someone else can confirm!

I assume it is for your board. I've had a look round and nothing else is short of an AT cable. Sorry about that! Must have taken it off when I was investigating the Zenith back in 2015 or so for Teensy.
Oh, wait, there's that Space Invader board I converted to USB C a couple of summers back. Was that board also AT? I don't remember. It
could well belong to that. Why do I never label things when I put them away?

Still, if it does the trick, I don't mind letting it go. Just don’t know for sure it'll fit.

I'll shoot you some cash for postage. This will spirit me on to put the damn thing back together if I don't have to Teensy it

Everyone was waiting just for you, evidently.

My Kishsaver isn’t stock layout, either. I run mine HHKB style with split backspace and ANSI Return plus Shifts.

I think you'll find there's no humble in that brag.

Thanks for the ID! I compared mine and it's a little longer, with a different colour on the insulation, but otherwise a bang-on match where it counts. Time to send it to its rightful owner and complete the Zenith!

That reminds me, I need to catch up with all these Alps wax boil folk for their reports on longevity of such lubrication.
