This card is a Dandy-3400 which claims to be compatible with the Future Domain card. It contains the TMC - 950 Chip (Manufactured by Future Domain). Although it looks like a 16 bit card upon closer evaluation, it only uses a 8 bit data path (The additional lines from the 16 bit slot seem to be for a wider range of interrupt settings). This card only has two settings, the IRQ line and the BIOS address range (additionally it can act as a FDD controller). Would anyone know anything about this card? What port(s) does it use? It doesn't seem to use DMA transfers - is this true? Is this supported by Julian's drivers? I am also looking at the Always IN 2000 SCSI card. How does this stack up? Is it supported by Julian's drivers? Many thanks in advance, Robert Knier (knier@miller.cs.uwm.edu)
