Voice Synthesizers

[Brent Harding]

I just really need one end's connector replaced, that silly tab must've
gotten caught on something in the case of the laptop. I put all cables in
one compartment,the power cord for the laptop in another, and the laptop
itself with the two dectalk cases in the big section, as I figured bending
that cable to put it back with the charger as it originally comes might do
something bad later, so in the cables compartment, don't have to bend it
quite as much.
