- Yes, IOTech, inc., provides a (pricey) SCSI/IEEE488 interface box and
- software for the NeXT to interface with the bus. We now have one in our
- lab, but haven't used it yet, so I can't tell you if/how well it works
- (though it looks reasonably well designed). I can't provide the number
- right now to reach IOTech, but it is listed in the "NeXT Shipping Third
- Party Products" guide.
