Hmm, I've just found an external SCSI II box. full of x2 SCSI cdroms!
I'd completely forgot I had that, as it's been a footstool under my desk
for so long! In fact I've probably got another one somewhere as well!!!
Could be useful to somebody who's got a load of SCSI drives!! :-)
I definetly need to get rid of all this stuff. Just think of all the
Brownie points it will get me, to get so much free tidy space in my
house, with my wife!! :-)
Cheers
Chris
