Ugh

Someone I used to work with designed the worst user interfaces I’ve ever seen. They were (to his face) described as “soviet”. He, of course, thinks he’s the best UI designer in the world.

Today on a mailing list he wrote about the terrible UI at the bank he uses.

I just laughed and laughed.

Dear lazyweb: SCSI adapters

I have a LVD SCSI tape unit that I would like to connect to my PC running FreeBSD 5.x. The scsi card I have reads:

ahc0: port 0xbc00-0xbcff mem 0xe6044000-0xe6044fff irq 21 at device 9.0 on pci2
aic7880: Ultra Wide Channel A, SCSI Id=7, 16/253 SCBs


I don’t think that this is LVD. What card should I buy that will give me decent LVD performance?
