DIP jumper cables used to be quite commonly available from
electronics component suppliers, in lengths ranging from a
couple of inches to a couple of feet.

Here's one at Digi-Key for $4.33:

Thanks for the info guys,
The problem I find with Digi-Key (or Mouser etc.) is the price of
international shipping. I think they ship everything international by
FedEx or DHL which makes shipping a $5 part cost something like $40 by
the time it gets to me...Crazy!

Bill, thanks for the offer, let me just figure out which route would
be cheaper from the US or from Aussi.

Understandable. The price can be ever so right, but that shipping can kill you. I'm always amazed at the low shipping from Hong Kong to the US though.
I see you stopped making the Apple II+ dual boot boards (thats a
shame), but still have a couple left. What is the price on one of
those?

The ROM board is $35 plus shipping. Go here to order. I'll be getting some produced as I have other orders. Need to modify the web page, huh? ;-) http://www.garberstreet.com/OrderROMboard.html
