I just bought a few LSI/Symbios/NCR 53CF94-2 chips, and I'm having a spot of trouble finding their datasheets. The web is replete with datasheets for AMD's AM53CF94, which looks to be the 10 MB/S version of the 53C94. However, that datasheet mentions that there is a 3.3v variant available. Does anyone know if the 53CF94-2 is the same as what AMD calls a 53CF94? It's used for the SCSI controllers in the higher-end DEC AXP 3000 machines, if that's any help, so I assume it's the same, but I'd rather not cook one finding out.

My 11/23+ is currently in a small 4-slot backplane. Said backplane came to me missing 2 of the plastic rail guides on the card cage to get the cards in properly. This isn't a terrible problem during operation for the quad-wide card I've got in there, because the insertion/extraction clamps and the backplane itself hold the card in place just fine once it's installed, but it does make the insertion/removal problem a pain in the ass.
Does anyone know the part number of the rails? I've had a devil of a time finding that in the service manuals available. I'd really rather just have a better backplane, but that costs more money than I'm interested in spending at the moment.
In a related note, does anyone have a BA23 enclosure they're looking to get rid of?

I was wondering if anyone had softcopies of Ross Ortman's R-E articles,
probably from '86 or so.
He owns Dakota Digital here in town, and lamented that he never saved a
copy of the articles he wrote.
I thought maybe someone might have copies electronic, or otherwise.

I'm looking for a good action, high quality keyboard of the same action/type as an IBM Model M or the really great Cherry keyboards of 'the day' to use on modern machines to code with and work at a terminal. My Logitech G110 is fine for general work (it's a decent keyboard in it's own right) but the 12 macro keys on the end confuse the b-jebus out of me and also the key-spacing is designed for gamers no typists.
I don't want to fudge an older PS/2 keyboard via a USB adapter as it generally doesn't work 100% right and I occasionally get keys dropped or doouble-typed. I also need the 'Windows' keys that a lot of older decent keyboards lack.
I'm willing to drop decent money to get one, so anyone got any ideas?

I recently acquired a machine that contains an Emulex CU02. I suspect it is
a Qbus SCSI controller, but I am not sure. I have not been able to find any
information on this card, all my searches find is dealers selling them, but
no description. Does anyone have any pointers to information on this card?
Thanks
Rob
