n. Any one of the fat cables that lurk under the floor in a dinosaur pen.
|
|
|
|
|
Possibly so called because they display a ferocious life of their own when
|
|
|
|
|
you try to lay them straight and flat after they have been coiled for some
|
|
|
|
|
time. It is rumored within IBM that channel cables for the 370 are limited
|
|
|
|
|
to 200 feet because beyond that length the boas get dangerous and it is
|
|
|
|
|
worth noting that one of the major cable makers uses the trademark Anaconda.
