Wonderful...now, what exactly how expensive are used pulls SMD 1gb or
up drives are? Suppose I now I have the little dandy SCSI/SMD bridge
board and a normal SCSI host controller in a PC driving whole thing
and even boot from that SMD drive?

There is performance difference between the 3.5" middle of
the range SCSI II fast to a good SMD hd?

Pout... :)

If responses looks good, why not if I would get 8" SMD drive and
amaze them with it on a PC. :)) Snickers! :)

PS: thanks for correcting me 'bout the homemade Ti graph link. In
fact, I am glad that is possible to do that, btw, I have that Ti 83.
The screen is much better than the older types and just bit faster.
