Date: Sun 15-Feb-1991 21:51:27 From: jiro@com (Jiro Nakamura) Subject: 040 SCSI2 <-> SCSI 1 Cable not available I just phoned NeXTConnection (1-800-800-NEXT) and the SCSI 2 <-> SCSI 1 Cable for the 040 machines is backordered. Next shipment is around the beginning of March. Sigh..... Cornell also is backordered for the cables. Our NeXT place can't get them for another 3 weeks (multiply this by the industry standard bullsh*t factor of 1.5 and it will be another month). Sigh sigh.... Can anyone get them? I *urgently* need one. Development at Shaman can't stop for two weeks. Maybe I'll go back back to the 030 (are you kidding??????). The 040 is damn fast, by the way. - Jiro Nakamura jiro@shaman.com ps. If anyone has a source, please please post it. I'm willing to pay extra, I just need a cable. pps. No affiliation with NeXTConnection, even as a customer because they don't have any cables. :-(

Fast Access (708-530-7749) sells them for $55. I don't know about the color. As far as I know, they have them in stock. Jacob
