He is?  Based on what?

You've repeatedly claimed that workstations do almost entirely
contiguous block file transfers (totally false), and that busmastering
EIDE eliminates the performance advantage of SCSI in a multitasking
multithreading environment (it does not, in my EXPERIENCE, or in the
experience of most others in this NG).

You have never been able to provide anything other than unsupported
repetition of your statments to prove these assertions, so why are you
surprised that people seem to be ganging up on you?
