Greetings Netters!

I think this subject may have been discussed before, but I wasn't interested
back then, so please don't flame me.  I am looking for a source for the
8-pin mini DIN socket just like the kind that's in the Macintosh.  I need
the printed circuit board mount, 90 degree angle variety, exactly like the
one's that are soldered to the Mac's logic board.  I have checked with all 
the obvious sources (Jameco, JDR, DigiKey, and several Bay Area surplus 
stores), but they only have cable-mount, or panel-mount styles--not the PC-
mount that I need.  I may need as many as 200 or so, so quantity purchasing
isn't a problem.  

If anyone can direct me to a source for these elusive connectors, I'd really
appreciate it.  You can Email me, or post it (I read the notes regularly).

Thanks,
Kris Livingston
