Re: Central Point software Board ??



Tom so this is the Laser 128 Drive port on a card? or.. a Liron card with 
standard Smartport stuff on a card?  the reason I ask welltwo reasons: 
1 if a Laser then iirc do NOT!!!!!!! hook a Unidisk to it.  that would do a 
very bad thing.

2. Also, my eternal quest: Would THAT one work as a port for the HD20?
