        My 2940 burned out recently and I bought a 2930 at CompUSA
        for around $130.  Works well for everything-SCSI that I 
        have.  The way I look at costs, you can go cheap and burn 
        yourself out trying to get cheap hardware to work, or go
        for the moderately priced boards.  I'll second the 2930.
