And as someone else pointed out, SCSI <-> Ethernet, of which new 
adapters are being made as well as SCSI <-> Wifi. Last year the Action 
Retro youtube channel was showing off a SCSI graphics adapter for the 
Mac SE/30 to have 3 displays.

I've also seen SCSI used for communicating with samplers (SMDI for 
Kurweil, a proprietary system for Akai, although I haven't actually seen 
it in use).

It is a shame that there weren't (at least not that I've heard of) 
multi-channel (more than 2) bi-directional audio or maybe a generic SCSI 
ADC or logic capture, maybe a scsi pulse genenerator/counter for use 
with steppers so a SS2 could control CNC stuff via SCSI.
