NCR has a SCSI BBS at (316) 636-8700 [Wichita, Kansas] which archives a lot of SCSI documents. If anyone is able to make a local call and download the SCSI 1 and 2 Standards docs [S1R17B.ZIP (133K) and S2510-C.ZIP (388K)] and post them to atari.archive.umich.edu, it would be appreciated! The NCR BBS at Colorado Springs, CO [(719) 596-1649] might have the files too, although I didn't check. The NCR Literature Center [800 334-5454, (719) 596-5612] will mail the 5380 SCSI chip design manual to anyone interested. The BBS also posted these references: Product Support Data Sheets, etc. -------------------------- ---------------------- NCR Microelectronics NCR Microelectronics 1635 Aeroplaza Information Hotline Colorado Springs, CO 80916 (M-F 8:00a-5:00p EST): Phone: (719) 596-5795 Phone: (800) 334-5454 Fax: (719) 597-8225 BBS: (719) 596-1649 How to Get SCSI Standards (and other SCSI Publications) This file contains information on obtaining the various SCSI standards and other published information about SCSI.
