Funny you should ask that.  A friend of mine called me about a month ago and
told me he had picked up a drive at an auction, and wondered which host adapter
he should use. I assumed it was a SCSI drive, but as we talked, it became
apparent that it was indeed a Fujitsu Eagle. Well, I was able to point him at a
possible source of a SCSI<->DMS controller, available from 'Computer Surplus
Store' (aka Wierd Stuff Warehouse), in Santa Clara. Their ads are in the
Computer Shopper. The board (from Adaptec) is selling for either $149 or $179,
depending on whether you are shopping in person or over the phone.
