They offer various device drivers for optical disk drives, including a SCSI Driver Starter Kit. Their number is (415) 336-2438. The SUN Sales Office in Australia is (02) 413 2666. As for the jukebox, you might try Cygnet Systems in San Jose. Their number is (408) 954-1800. They have software that is called JIMS, the jukebox interface management system.` This allows the application writer to access the individual volumes (one side of a two-sided platter) without worrying where the volume currently is, what its orientation is, etc. Will Nelson Internet: will@presto.ig.com Intelligenetics, Inc.

Sorry for commercial info, I just want to get this right - we have skeleton SCSI/SCSA drivers, SCSI target drivers of various flavors, and some third party drivers for sale as Specials. You can send mail to consult-info@sun.com for datasheets and a list of our products. The number to call is 415-336-2400 in the US, or contact your local sales critter for info. If they can't help, by all means call us. Kevin Sheehan Sun Microsystems kevin@sun.com
