A further note on SCSI busses.  Avoid mixing cable types.  If you have
flat ribbon cable, stick with it.  Likewise for twisted pairs.  Try
not to have both twisted pairs and flat ribbon on the same bus.  The
errors you MAY see will be to bizzare to understand.  Never use a
round cable that has 50 seperate wires.  Use flat ribbon, round ribbon
(ribbon cable curled up in a round jacket) or twisted pairs.  Try to
use shielded cable.
