as I said the terminator supposedly fried.  I've never heard of it happening
either.  However, if it did happen, then 'scsi chain blowing itself up' is
an accurate description.

scsi is a very robust system, problems occur when attatching legacy devices
to the same bus (SCSI-2 devices connected via a SCSI-1 cable).  Problems do
not occur unless there is a design flaw or the user has things set up wrong.
Any quirks in particular you'd like to mention?

well your experience differs from the mac owners I know.  I have heard
testimonials like yours but only online, people I actually know in real life
tell an entirely different story (yet they still cling to their macs).  Are
you sure you don't work for Apple??
