Thank you very much. Now I have to see if I still have the cables. Others
went through things, and just started tossing. If I can't find them, I'll
still keep this information. Right now I'm not buying a thing since I'm
trying to save up the money for a flight to go and visit my mom at
Thanksgiving. I hope I can save up enough, she will be 95 in July, and is
still doing very well.
