Although I've got a source for an NCR 53C825-based controller (MCT), I'm 
looking around in the Dallas/Ft.Worth area to see if I can do better on 
price.  Of course most vendors no little other than Adaptec and DTC.

Does anyone have any experience with either of the following controllers, 
particularly a tech support number so I can pose some questions?

    Tekram 390          PCI/SCSI2       ~$100       (sounds like no BIOS)
    Future Domain 3260  PCI/SCSI2       ~$140

thanks for all replies,
larry
