- Although you are VERY RIGHT from a technical standpoint, please cut the guys
- at MWC some slack!! If you follow the newsgroup you know that an ugly mob was
- beginning to form, and we were in the midst of running to get our torches and
- pitchforks to go attack the "Colorodo Systems" monster. MWC just responded to
- what amounted to a request for support from the user community. Perhaps more
- people feel that they should spend their efforts upgrading the SCSI driver and
- skip the other, but based on the traffic here, one would never know it.
-
- And don't forget economics! The "thingabum disk controller", while not the
- best answer in the world DOES work and it IS cheap(er) (only in the short
- term, but that's another debate 8-)).
