Maybe I implied something other than what I intended to imply when I insinuated that Jeanne bought that, urm, magazine for something other than the articles. I intended to imply she bought it to try to make a guy blush. I guess it didn’t read that way.

And Jeanne informs me that "some film hunk" was John Malkovich. I don’t know who he is. Maybe I lose coolness points.

Ah well. We can’t all be as cool as Hobbes the Tiger wearing a sombrero.

a couple of points:

"a camel is a horse designed by committee" No doubt a useful animal but useless in the Kentucky Derby.

60 to 1. These are not good odds, these are bad odds. It’s Afghanistan all over again, they are the Northern Alliance, and you are the Taliban, trapped like a dog in the province of "committee".

Run away, run like you just stole something.

LOL

Thanks for reminding me. That’s where a modern SCSI controller kicks in. The Adaptec 19160 has an LVD segment for your Ultra160 devices and an Ultra segment for your CD-ROM, CD-RW, DVD, scanner, etc.

So you want to do some planning. Pay a little extra for a multi-channel card so you can isolate your slower peripherals.

That means that if you got high performance LVD harddisks and a wide SCSI CD-ROM then you’ll need two SCSI adapters to benefit from the performance your harddisks can muster.

In practical terms that means that you can have as many as 7 devices on a single channel only if you are ready to accept that your expensive hardware runs as slow as the slowest component on that chain.
