The Mac-style SCSI port is 25-pin, compared to the rest of the known universe which uses a SCSI-standard 50-pin connector. -- Michael Portuesi * Information Technology Center * Carnegie Mellon University INTERNET: mp1u+@andrew.cmu.edu * BITNET: mp1u+@andrew UUCP: ...harvard!andrew.cmu.edu!mp1u+ MAIL: Carnegie Mellon University, P.O.
