Has anyone any ideas what kind of disk interface the TurboMac will use?
I have wondered if they might not use SCSI for the following reasons
  1) I heard their prototype file server for AppleTalk uses SCSI
  2) I heard the prototype file server has was designed to be programmed
     in much the same way as the mac. It looks like a mac with the monitor
     chopped off.
It doesn't make sense to me that Apple would unnecessarily design additional
revision of a board. I think it would be great to have a mac with an SCSI 
interface. It would make the machine much more expandable.
