I don't believe I said anything in favour of or against SPI. I think you'll find the whole point of SAM is separating the command set from the transport and interconnect. Saying a device speaks "SCSI" has no real meaning in that context anymore. It's commonly taken to mean SCSI-2 where the whole things was lumped together and SPI centric. In the SAM context, a modern IDE CD is MMC over an ATAPI or SATAPI transport. An old SCSI CD is MMC over SPI. The thing Alan's having trouble with is MMC over a USB transport. > If you went to www.t10.org and looked at draft documents > and the reflector you would be lucky to find any documents > or posts about SPI in the last two years.
