Message-ID: Organization: HoloNet National Internet Access System: 510-704-1058/modem References: Date: Thu, 24 Feb 1994 08:38:49 GMT Lines: 17 Most real computers (computers not desiring to annoy the owner) have had SCSI on every model sinch early 1985.... such as the Macintosh brand. No hassles no headaches with SCSI. And we all know that the Mac people use SCSI to connect not just CD-ROMs but high performance hard disks and disk arrays, video cards for poratbles, lab measurement equipment, communications subsystems with many rs-232 ports, scanners, Magneto optical devices, worms, Floptical drives, solid state storage devices, DSP computer systems (I own a Voice Navigator 2), CD-Recorders, etc. etc. Is SCSI worth it! HAhahahhahaha I can remember the belly laughs I had when ESDI was predicted to take over. I can remember the humor resulting from Sun predicting that SCSI would be phased out. Idiots! SCSI forever (including Firewire) -Bill Williams
