There aren't very many E100s but there are quite a few JackHammers. I think the bottleneck is that no one has documentation for the workings of the SCSI chip used on the JackHammer cards. It would be nice if the company that took over Stream Logic would turn loose of that info. It's not like they're ever going to use it again. Or if there were an ex-Stream Logic or FWB employee around who could leak it to the Mac community... Jeff Walther -- SuperMacs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
