Actually, from what I have seen, read, witnessed the world is "cranking
out" SCSI interfaces for everything known to man/woman at a phenominal
rate. I have already heard of one company that has SCSI-Ethernet and I
have definitely read of several with SCSI 9-track tapes. A/D is close behind.
I tend to apply a simple law of physics. As processors get faster and
faster their related components will get closer and closer. You draw
your own conclusions......
