    The Electric Coelacanth

    Ok so my son needed a new keyboard for his desktop. We head to MicroCenter and get a basic keyboard. Or we thought we did (ominous music plays).

    My son takes it back to his room and ten minutes later he calls out
    Dad, how does this plug in?

    Me being a jerk at times, It has one wire what’s the mystery?

    Where does the wire plug in?
    Then I look at it…

    Apparently that wire plugs into 1998…

    I hadn’t seen a serial port in 25 years.

    I thought 'The Electric Coelacanth' was a dance club where all the ichthyologists go to unwind.

        I have never ever heard about this before. My birthday is in 1991 and still, I don't know what the hell it is. Just only because of it's unique name, I came here to find out what it is.

          Are you asking what a DIN connector is, or what a coelacanth is?

            Regardless, Sherry is droppin' an H Bomb on maiden post. Strong. I like it.
            You are transparent; I see many things... I see plans within plans.
