- I have a SCSI optical drive which I frequenty move between my mac and my PC.
- Since this works fine, and since I am not using any extra attachments to
- make this work, I assume that the apple CD-ROM drive should work properly
- with the PC. (In fact I have ordered a copy of NT based on this assumption).

- The SCSI controller I am using is Western Digital's 7000-FASST2 card. This
- card claims to support full SCSI I and II command sets.

- I too would like to know this. NT doesn't help me much if I cannot have
- atleast 600*800*256 on my Paradise SVGA card. Can someone please comment.
