- I just called Radius and asked if the upcoming ISA XGA-2 card would
- work in a machine with a 1542b and the sales fellow I talke to said
- the product manager had assured him (this is a long enough communi-
- cations chain to qualify as a party game!) the card will "coexist
- with other bus mastering devices, in particular the SCSI-2 controllers."
