I'm going to buy a 486/33 local bus computer in the near future with
plenty of bays available so that eventually I can add an internal CD
and sound card, and internal tape backup, as well as an additional
hard drive if I need it. 

What should I look for in a computer that will enable to make these
future additions?  Will I need to purchase a machine that already
has a SCSI adapter?  Since a lot of people seem to have problems
with SCSI peripherals, is it possible for me to avoid it?  What is 
the SCSI upgrade option that ZEOS is offering on its new PCs?

My apologies if these are FAQs, but I've been reading the net and
magazines for 6 months and this is one thing I can't figure out.
Thanks.
