 Curious cables - borasport
Time to clear out the box of computer 'spares' - currently in the bin or up on freecycle are the joystick (not played any sort of game in five years or so), 56k dial up modem, assorted parallel printer cables, PCI network card ,etc,etc

I've found 2 cables I can't identify a function for, so I'm reluctant to get rid at the moment. They have a standard USB connector at one end, and the other end looks like a mini-usb but isn't - it is the same shape, but not quite the same size (won't fit a mini-usb slot), the metal plating only covers 3 sides, the longest side being bare plastic with two small grooves.
Anyone recognise them from the description ? They've come out of a box I haven't opened for 2 years so they are obviously not crucial, but I know if they go in the bin, then next week I'll find whatever it is that beolngs to them
