Keywords: Ethernet, SE/30, SCSI, video Message-ID: <1991Feb27.141555.14813@DMI.USherb.CA> Date: 27 Feb 91 14:15:55 GMT Sender: Marc Mazuhelli Organization: Universite de Sherbrooke, Quebec Lines: 31 Nntp-Posting-Host: terre.dmi.usherb.ca Hi there, A while ago, I posted a message asking for an SE/30 PDS card with both Ethernet *and* video for an external screen. The only two responses I got were from people interested in the responses I would get :-( I will try to find the time to make a few phone calls to card makers. If I find something, I will post it here. If someone missed the first query or didn't respond, you can still do it! I (and at least 2 other persons) would like to hear from you! In the meantime, I guess I have to consider the alternative: A video board in the PDS slot and a SCSI Ethernet box :-( I seem to remember that the first versions of these boards were not exactly perfect... I am interested in knowing about compatibility and performance. I know Compatible Systems make one (and they have good University rebates too). So if you have something to say (either good or bad) about any SCSI box you use, I would like to hear from you. I will summarize of there are enough responses. Again, thanks for your help! -- { Marc Mazuhelli | professeur } { internet: mazu@dmi.USherb.CA | Departement de math-info. } { | Sherbrooke, Quebec, Canada }
