Nice, thanks for the link!

Just zapped through it, because I feel it's a lot of blah blah overhead to me compared to showing off the actual thing in use. Gladly, I found the spot where he shoved around a window so one can get a sense of performance. Pretty impressive!

Somewhat of a let-down was that the box only had a single SCSI connector. Daisy chaining had to take place before it. There also were scanners with only one connector. I've seen SCSI cables from IBM with a "pass-through", brick like contraption on one end to counter that, but never with Macs.

I was a bit disappointed because of these three screens, two were "mirrored". Not counting the TV. With an additional internal graphics card, an SE/30 could in fact drive three separate screens: SCSI, card in the internal slot, internal screen. That would have been truly awesome!
