hehe well i noticed that in gel pens.. those ugly flouresent... pents.. the ink tube is about the size of a female molex pin. so basically just grab the end of ink tube.. obviously.. right up the female pin.. twist and turn a bitl... give the wire a nice tug.. and OUT GOES THE dang PIN!
yeh!
so screw you bigfootcomputers... radioshack.. and other places that sell molex pin removers for like 20 bucks
go suck gel pens. yeh

well fellow occ'ers have fun!

yeh combination of pen tubes and pins work the best.. pins/ flat head screw drivers work for 20pin atx.. the 4 pin thingy.. the aux plug and flopy \
then my crazy pens work for the normal molexes

the gelpens i dug up out of my desk (from like...5 years ago) don't work. the ID i guess looks about right, but the OD is too big and it doesn't even fit in the connector.
any other suggestions?
btw...what is a crazy pen? can i get a couple? (i'll paypal you like...$2) lol

ther are different pen sizes.. look around.. look for 3.5mm...
and on the same note... male 3.5mm audio pins work too.. just cut off the front
