Well, I still have a few days to decide whether to take advantage of the
3.0/CD-ROM reader deal for developers. (deal ends on Wednesday, 9/30/92)

I'd like to know if the CD-ROM reader is a generic-SCSI device, or is there
some NeXT-only aspect to it.  For instance, has anyone successfully attached
the device to another system, specifically other *ix workstations, including
Intel 80*86 machines running some sort of *ix (with a SCSI controller, 
of course).
Feedback on this will be much appreciated.
