Hi all,

what is a "realistic" price for a Q-bus SCSI controller supperted by NetBSD
?
Looks like i'm the only one who hasn't one. But i have something about 10
SCSI disks here.
I e-mailed DILOG, but the price of 1700 $ is more than i like to spend.
(more than 1500 to much...)

What makes this scsi so expensive ?
Is there a patent on this MSCP, TMSCP protocols ?

I'm thinking about developing one for the q-bus, should be cheaper than
.., and i could use my disks here.
(its not my first one, i build such stuff on vme-bus before)

thanks,
emanuel
