It came to my attention that my follow-up to the Specialix review was truncated.
(Apparently some newsreaders truncated the article at the inappropriately
placed "--" near the bottom).

Here's the last paragraph:

We tend to use Specialix almost exclusively for anything more than 8 ports.
Once the physical problem with the TA8s is solved, it is an excellent
product. It is a UK-based company, but they also have a (small) office
in Silicon Valley (with REAL technical people). They have been extremely
helpful and supportive when we had a hardware failure at a system we were
installing in NY (they FedExed a replacement for a defective cable to
New York at 3:00 PM Friday!).

I have heard that they now have a host adapter that will support up to
64 ports. I assume from conversations of two months ago that it is available
for the EISA bus as well.
