Yay an update!
Hmm...looks like some legacy stuff got removed (ISA, AMR, ADB). Maybe we need a separate legacy page for all those "What does this ancient thing do?" moments.

For a moment, I thought this was a sex-ed thread and was doubly frightened because GasBandit was teaching it.

Computer peripherals lend themselves to soooo many innuendo opportunities.
That can't be an accident.

I still maintain those who decided how to pronounce SCSI knew exactly what they were doing.

It's pronounced scuzzy, like fuzzy.

It's pronounced "skuzzy," like how one might describe something sticky and unwashed.

I've always pronounced it "Scǝzzy," with more of a short "ih" feel than the short "uh."

You'd be the only person I've ever met to do so, and I'd be surprised if more than one person hasn't given you the "What's wrong with you?" look when using that pronunciation in their presence.

I mean, hey, hey Lawrence, you ever hear somebody pronounce it "Skizzy?"

I doubt I'd get my ass kicked. People who use the word "SCSI" in a sentence are as a rule unlikely to indulge in ass-kickings.

I saw the font was off, I was hoping someone had posted something that let you create a bunch of your own, à la Time Friends.

Yeah, twitter uses that commie "helvetica neue" font, and no amount of massaging Arial gets it exactly right.
