However I have no info on whether it would be possible
to add a
SCSI card to an IBM-PC. I have an Adaptec 1522A ISA SCSI card
and likely others in my card box. Was there a SCSI card for the
PC ? If so, would this possibly, with this configuration, allow you to
transcend the 5-slot limits of the PC. And of course to have 1 meg
storage for programs. WHEEEEE!!!
Am I in fantasy-land or could I have a system to confound the
leading-edgers, altho it already does that. "NO IT ISN'T POSSIBLE
ON SUCH AN EARLY COMPUTER" . He he he he, chortle.
Larry,
There were any number of 8-bit ISA SCSI cards available...in
fact, most of the early cards were made for the original ISA slots
vice the 16-bit slots introduced with the AT. Trantor <sp?> comes to
mind as one, though any others escape me at the moment. It shouldn't
be too hard to locate one though.
