Hi ! 

Is the Adaptec WIDE SCSI PCI controller currently supported by FreeBSD ?
Or when will it be supported ? Is it supported in Linux 3.X kernel ?

Can you connect normal devices like DAT or CD-Rom on the internal wide
scsi bus ???? Is the cable still a 50 pin cable ? I think so, but
want to be sure...

What about EDO RAM ? Is it supported by Linux and FreeBSD ?
Problems to expect ?

What about Linux/FreeBSD and the ASUS P54TP4 board ? Known problems
with the Triton Chipset ?

Which Pentium chip will offer a better internal design, larger cache,
already the P100 or the 133 MHz Version ?

An answer via e-mail is preferred, I'll summarize mentioning your name.
