Don\'t need cd audio cable in computer anymore?
I used to work in a computer shop, last time was about three years ago now. Used to be you had to hook a three wire cd audio cable from the cdrom drive to the sound card in order to play back audio cds in the computer. Just assembled a computer system with two cd rom drives. Audio cds play fine both, in cd rom drive with audio cable and also with one that doesn't have cable installed. What changed?
