	Ahhh...I remember getting my first 2x SCSI CD-ROM drive.  It was for a
486/66 I had at the time that was originally purchased to run NeXTSTEP -
I moved to Windows 3.1 becuase of lack of NeXTSTEP apps.  (I still love
NeXTSTEP, which is now the heart and soul of Mac OS X / OS X Server.) 
Anyway -- I did not have a proper cable as the board was a SCSI II board
and the external connector was a microDB-50 -- I drove 50 miles to get
that round trip to get back in time to throw some serious hours down in
MYST.  So slick.  Stayed up all night playing it and solved it in 17
hours with my girlfriend at the time.  Back in early '94.  Ahhh...those
were the days...
