Dick Smiths, I thought that was still illegal in most southern states.

They probably won't sell them as 'Mac' cables - just ask for a SCSI cable (Centronics to DB15, or whatever connectors you want)

A little knowledge is a dangerous thing, but it sure beats a blank stare for starting a conversation.

Exactly. They're completely cross platform, so just ask for a DB-25 to Centronics-50 external SCSI cable.

Another option is to go to a Mac shop and ask them if they have any. Most Mac shops usually have some hanging around from the Performa era.
