On SCSI, Tandy is shipping a version of SCO 386 that has ST-506 and SCSI
support in it.  The SCSI Adapter is one that Tandy sells but it
manufactured by Adaptec.  The Tandy number is 25-4161 ($299.95) and the
Adaptec number is AHA-1540.  Future versions of SCO 386 will include
the SCSI Tandy/Adaptec Support, but for right now it is only available
from Tandy (v2.2.4).
