 Anyone see any at any surplus places? Online searches are
 pretty much useless because
 of the extremely common 40 pin male IDC plug, and my
 searches in the valley have come
 up empty.
 
 Hmmm, Digi-Key used to make cables to order with this type

Yup, they still got em!  I had to look in the last paper
catalog the sent in 2011.  The part number at Digi-Key is
CPC40S, no idea if the row spacing matches the board you
need, but they have them in stock.
