AI Thread Summary
10-pin female flat ribbon cables can be sourced from various online retailers and local electronics stores. While pre-assembled options may be limited, users can find ribbon cables and connectors sold separately. Recommended online sources include Tyco Electronics, Connect World, Newark, McMaster, and Jameco. For those affiliated with a Computer Engineering department, checking with them may yield additional resources. Building a custom cable by combining a 10-wire ribbon cable with a female 10-slot DIP connector is a viable alternative for those unable to find pre-assembled solutions.

I have a couple of those that i used on my CSE210 class. I got them from the CSE department, i don't think i was supposed to keep them, but whatever. Do you have access to a Computer Engineering department? They might be able to get you a couple.
 
I could probably ask, but since it's winter break most people are out so it might be a little difficult.
 
Actually mine have 16 pins and are male, they look exactly like this:

There must be an online store that sells yours though.

There's a couple of pretty old ones sitting around at work, but i can't take them. :-p
I think they sell the ribbon cable and the connectors separately. So you want a 10 wire ribbon cable and a female 10 slot DIP connector or something like that. I think your best bet is a local hardware/electronics store.

I tried google but couldn't find anything to my satisfaction. It would be nice to have it pre-assembled, but I guess I'm going to have to get the ribbon and header seperately and then built it myself.

and
