I've been waiting to ask this for a while actually, but I've been about 
200-300 messages backlogged on both comp.sys.mac and comp.sys.mac.programmer
to be able to keep up..

I have a question about the SCSI interface. I imagine it could sound quite
naive but I'll ask it anyway, at the risk of sounding like an idiot..

We have a few TK50 drives (for various vax systems) lying around gathering
dust. They have a SCSI connection on the back. Now up until now I've never
really thought about how "standard" SCSI was.. is it the protocol as well as
the hardware connection? I have the cables, that's no problem. Basically I'm
wondering if it will work as easy as that (I think not, though I'd be
pleased to find out otherwise), or if software would have to be written.
If the latter is the case, how big a project would it be? I'd like to
imagine that if there is some special protocol on the Vax side that Dec must
provide SOME documentation on it.. and the Mac side would probably be at
least partially covered in Inside Mac IV or V, correct?

If anyone has any information on text that could help me in this project,
please forward it along to me. It seems such a waste with them sitting here
and all.
