Thanks, Scott... that is a very informative piece... had no idea that Wiki
existed!
And thanks to everyone else who pointed out that there are several CF-SCSI
adapters out there; pricey but at least there is an option.
I have found, after experimenting with IDE-CF setups using a Lombard, tiBook
and a Pismo, that Kingston's 133x cards can be seen as fixed drives; I have
them running in the aforementioned laptops as well as in a PC laptop.? Never
tried the faster Kingstons... I'm too cheap!

There's a nice writeup on the subject here:

Most of the solutions are rare, expensive, or both.
