   I just phoned NeXTConnection (1-800-800-NEXT) and the SCSI 2 <-> SCSI 1
Cable for the 040 machines is backordered. Next shipment is around the
beginning of March. Sigh.....
   Cornell also is backordered for the cables. Our NeXT place can't
get them for another 3 weeks (multiply this by the industry standard
bullsh*t factor of 1.5 and it will be another month). Sigh sigh....
   Can anyone get them? I *urgently* need one. Development at Shaman
can't stop for two weeks. Maybe I'll go back back to the 030 (are you
kidding??????). The 040 is damn fast, by the way.

ps. If anyone has a source, please please post it. I'm willing to pay
extra, I just need a cable.
pps. No affiliation with NeXTConnection, even as a customer because they
don't have any cables. :-(
