With the new SUN SPARC SLC and future announcements from DG, DEC, HP, etc. a new class of workstations which have no bus except for a SCSI interface are evolving. SCSI peripherals like the Ether + ( from Compatible Systems, Golden Colorado ) which provides an extra Ethernet port to create a gateway, and the SLAT ( from UNINET Santa Ana California ) which provides serial, parallel, and synchronous communications are the only way to interface to these workstations. How about information on more manufacturers and Software to Support SCSI devices? I'll post the information!

Um, did you somehow miss the announcement of the Sun 3/50 several years ago? There are probably more of those in the field than most workstations *with* buses. -- As a user I'll take speed over| Henry Spencer at U of Toronto Zoology features any day. -A.Tanenbaum| uunet!attcan!utzoo!henry henry@zoo.toronto.edu
