I have used 2.54" pitch shrouded IDC headers and sockets to
interconnect PCB's, the same as used on hard drives etc. They are not
small profile but are cheap and reliable, and are available in straight
and right-angle mounting. Some manufacturers are Molex and Multicomp.
To attach cables to these headers, you can use ribbon cable in which
case a hammer will suffice to close the connector onto the cable,

A *Hammer* !?? Us real proffessionals use a bench vise! :)
