I bought an Asus PCI-SC875 recently from http://www.asacomputers.com. 
Noticed the price had risen on Diamond Fireport40's since I first saw 
the card. The Asus was cheaper. And I like it better because it has an 
external wide connector.

Also thought it might be nice to put an Asus SCSI card on an Asus MB.
