Eric,

    you would be wrong..... (you really ought to check your facts)

    what you described is a 2920 A  ... what the seller had described
    was a 2920C. Which is all of the things he claimed. It is a 
    AIC78xx chip... and  pretty good little card. Any of the cards
    that came with the ez-scsi 5.0 upgrade he describe are at least a C
    version.
