This seems to suggest to me that any PowerBook with a drive over 4MB cannot be
used in SCSI Disk Mode. Was this a limitation to older PowerBooks that could
not use SCSI Manager (like the Duo) or does it apply to all PowerBooks (or just
to the Duo)? I can't see it applying to all PowerBooks as some of the new G3s
came with 6Gig drives. Does this limitation apply to 2400s as well?
