Adaptec just had an on-line conference.
During this conference, Adaptec announced its plans to EOL on 3/31/00
the following adapters:
        2930u2
        2940u
        2940uw pro
        2940u2w
        3950u2

There is a transition matrix to show which Ultra160 products will replace
the adapters. The Ultra160 adapters are shipping now. There is "Linux
support from the start" for these devices (their words, not mine).

Just an FYI...

Don
PS - I think there is one more on-line conference today.....
