Re: Unknown cable on A500
It looks like the ground cable on the keyboard. It usually attaches to the floppy drive with a screw, in the hole that you can also see in the picture.

Re: Unknown cable on A500
Sorry, double post, but I'll add that the screw also supports the floppy drive by also attaching in on that plastic riser too.

Re: Unknown cable on A500
It should be grounded, but it will work without it. Just like an electrical appliance will work if you break off the third grounding pin and stick the cord in a two-plug socket. You're defeating the possible safety purpose for it being there, but it still works.
