Title: Share one non-ADB Soundbox with multiple NeXTs - LPT switch

I have a turbo slab and a cube on my desk at the moment with no room for both sets of accessories. I purchased a mechanical LPT switch box and simply hacked off the extra pins to make it work with the DB19 cables from the next. I can now use the same soundbox for both.
