Hello. SCSI Question. Does anyone have any Powerbook G3 scsi devices
recognized in OS 10.2.8? I have thought that the particular MESH to the
scsi on the wallstreet and Lombard were not recognized by OSX. Am I
overlooking something useful hear? TIA

Chief,

Most older Epson printers can still be used under OS X by installing 
Gimp-print and Ghostscript software, available here:
<http://gimp-print.sourceforge.net/MacOSX.php3>

Many SCSI scanners can be controlled by installing Vue-Scan software. 
Check here for supported scanner models:

I've seen Lombards selling in the $300-$500 range - keep an eye out 
on the LowEndMac swap list here:
<http://lowendmac.com/lists/swap.html>

The Lombard is the last PowerBook model to include a built-in SCSI 
port. I've heard reports of varying success (mostly failure) using 
USB-SCSI adapters with newer machines.

Hope this helps.


Rick
