Yes, I had heard that the rev. C Ramfast has the 50-pin connector.  I
don't really want to give up my 1 meg cache on the rev. D.  Well, I
may be able to hack together a monitor cable or a modem cable but I
know that a SCSI cable is well beyond my ability.  Anyone know of a
place that specializes in custom SCSI cables?
