Actually, plastic molding is cheap.  It is creating the mold and getting it
set up that's expensive.
What I want is a "hacker" sleeve.  It needs the 100 pin connector, a CF
slot and some other connector to give easy access to at least some of the
lines.  A PS/2 connector, maybe?
Access to data lines and maybe a signal line or two would enable tons of
cool peripherals: game controllers, thumb trackballs, chording keyboards,
etc.
Maybe some enterprising type will get a hold of a bunch of CF sleeves, add
an access port and sell them to us.
