Kinda sad too. They used to make other SCSI
boards that often outperformed
similar products from Adaptec. BusLogic/Mylex also made very nice
programming manuals which were freely available when Adaptec still wanted
an NDA and other paperwork signed to get sketchy documentation for their
products. Once Adaptec changed their programming documentation policy,
Mylex seemed to take a large drop in sales.
Why? Mylex still makes *very* fast SCSI RAID controllers. They're
just not i960-based anymore. They're StrongARM-based.
