Hi. Nice! Could you send me the email address of this "Avision software manager"? Or ask him/her whether it is possible to get a new SCSI Spec (and maybe also the magic parallel Spec anyone ever saw) from them?
My latest versoin is: rene@jackson:~/daten/doc/hardware > head avision-Scsi3_12101999.txt Avision Scanner SCSI protocol V3.02 Rev date: 05/18/98' 1.1 SCSI Specification SCSI Version : SCSI-II, X3.131-199x, Mar. 9, 1990 And they stopped to answer to my e-mails :-(.
