That's sad :(

A bit of a hack, but I suppose you could hook up a 9-pin D type connector via
a very short run of cable and solder it straight to the right points on the
BBC board - then you can just use a normal serial cable with it and no need to
locate the domino connector...
Just hang it outside the case so you can always undo it later...
