     When this question came up several months ago, I was digging
through catalogs looking for connectors, etc. to make the cable and felt
pretty good about finding the stuff. Then, this information was posted

     You could try going to your nearest video/audio electronics store
and purchasing an 'S-VHS video cable' (used with "super video
input/output" TV monitors and super video vcr's).  Those cables are
wired and pinned out exactly the same as a GS ADB cable.
