From: Mike (I'll be mellow when I'm dead) Meyer <mwm%ucbopal@BERKELEY.EDU> Does anybody know if IOmega is working on a Bernoulli box for the Amiga? I hope so - I'd much rather have one of those than a hard disk... Thanx, <mike

Hear, hear! How much do they typically cost? I've heard of
the idea but no specifics.

IOmega already has an SCSI version available! (Compatibility for a change!) :-) Assuming Amiga put (or will put) an SCSI driver into the Boot Rom, you can boot right off of the Bernoulli box (And use your floppy for transferring from 'standard format'. Worth noting, both Mac and Atari plan to use SCSI as a standard "expansion interface". You can even hang laser printers, CD-Roms, and even other computers (If supported) off of the SCSI bus as well. It's getting so that peripherals are like componant stereo, you should be able to plug anything into anything by the end of this year. Any comment from Commodore on direct support for SCSI?
