Several Mac SCSI vendors were recently selling notebook IDE drives
with an IDE to SCSI adapter so they could be used in Mac laptops.

http://www.apstech.com was one of them. Didn't see it on their
site just now, but that doesn't mean much.

Don't know how much good you think it would do. Wouldn't be surprised
to learn this adapter was a very bad SCSI neighbor and bus hog.
