Excellent news, now I just need to find an appropriate SCSI
host adaptor for it.

Put like that it does sound kind of obvious! <sheepish grin>
Hmm... is it perverse to use a 3/60 board as a file server
for a 3/110? <grin>

Thanks for the spotter's guide, which I've filed away for
when I actually get to see the boards. That comment about
the part numbers may not help in this case though, since
ComputerVision seem to have different part numbers.
