Welcome pf !
I think we all felt relief and joy at finding this list. And the
list is a real education for ninety
percent of us.
You don't mention your OS version. But if you are at the 8.5/.6
stage a USB card is a cheap
door to peripheral upgrades provided you can get a Mac driver for the unit
you want to add.
It.s harder to find new SCSI printers etc.
So ask away and keep asking. Eventually you will get whatever
information you need and have a lot of fun and satisfaction while making
your Mac truly yours.
