Incidentally, I got a good price on the SIIG Ultra ATA-133 
controller card and now that it is installed Apple System Profiler 
sees it as ACARD.  The ACARD costs more but it sounds like they are

Certain Far East companies make PC cards under their own name, but market Mac 
cards through other companies.

Promise made the VST card; ACARD made the early SIIG cards (someone else 
apparently makes the late SIIG cards).

The critical factor is firmware development for Macs, in which Firmtek LLC 
seems to be the leader.
