need help with usb cable

[arch3angel at gmail.com (Arch Angel)]

What if someone makes a cable for you so you can still enjoy the testing?

I think I have some USB cables I hacked up when I did my Xbox Cluster a few
years back.  If I can find that your more than welcome to it.  All I did was
hack the square end off to attach it to a normal Xbox cable end, allowing me
to use a keyboard on my Xboxs once I hacked them and installed Linux.

I may even have a 3.5mm jack end or two.  I cant do this myself right now
due to work and classes (Finals next week) but I can surely locate the
hardware and set it aside for ya.
