  12. I'm sure someone out there has an A/D board for their SGI system, but
  13. everyone I know who needs analog data uses a PC, then send the data
  14. over serial lines.  This is bad for serveral (probably) obvious reasons.
  15.  
  16. Can anyone out there tell us of success/unsuccess stories of 3rd party
  17. VME A/D boards, and what kind of SGI support you received?  Did you
  18. have to write your own device drivers ...?

  20.     Thanks,
