Thanks for clearing that up :-) I was wondering about if BusLogic was supported myself (wow, am I glad I didn't buy that other card I was looking at when I bought the 390F). Is there any way that we can get a list of SRM-supported stuff or should we just rely on the HCL's on Compaq's site? C -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
