Given that there's little hope that my CD-ROM drive would arrive anytime soon, I started looking for alternatives. Being one of the lucky few who has a NEC CD-R 77 (doesn't work with a NeXT), I borrowed a CHINON CDS-430 and all seemed well. So I proceeded to use the CD-ROM Tools to upgrade my mach kernel. Only to find out that the CHINON doesn't work either with a NeXT. (Boy! there's a lot of weird SCSI implementations out there! Anyone want's to write a BAD SCSI implemetation driver?). So here I find myself, with a 3.0 kernel and NO UPGRADE. To make matters worse, I seem to have lost all sound capabilities. So much for that. My NeXT is now mute - weird feeling.
