Firewire follies continued
Remember my complications trying to find an extension cable for my firewire cam, which I had temporarily solved by daisy-chaining the cam to that back of a firewire disk drive on the far edge of my desk?
Today the postman arrived with an envelope from Malaysia.
"Whom the hell do I know in malaysia?" I asked myself. There are some folks in Singapore and environs on the olympus mailing list but that's about as close as I get. (The envelope felt like there was something round and vaguely camera-related in it, and I wondered if someone had shipped something to me by mistake.)
But damned if it wasn't the firewire connector, pretty much direct from the factory. For $10.00 including shipping. I am impressed. Thank you, frontx, whoever you are.
