I think I have a cable that will go between the 50 pin centronis SCSI
interface and the mac 25 pin connector at the store
(www.thetoytrader.com). If someone wants to stop by I'd be willing to lend
it out. I'll be there after about 6pm, but we close at 7pm or noon-6pm
tommorow. I've got a SCSI CD-ROM as well, but I never got it work with the
LS400 I was playing with. (544-4493)
