I feel your pain. I have just checked Griffin's website, and they
don't seem to have the answer, but there must be a Firewire/SCSI
adaptor available somewhere.
I did see a USB/SCSI adaptor while we were buying my son's iBook, but
it was in an old box and the salesman knew little about it. My son
is very pleased with the little machine: the girls love it and
cluster around him when he brings it out (so to speak) ... it is also
pretty good in the computing stakes ;-).
I have just tried OSX by the way; it seems pretty, but I reckon it
is going the way of Windoze opaqueness (and it slows the machine) and
it is a relief to get back to the mature OS9.1.

Seeing as were discussing scanning at present - any pertinent advice on
this problem?
I'm running a Polaroid SS4000 and APS CD burner off my G3 laptop without
problems. However, the laptop is a lease deal with my employer (local
education department) and the 3 year lease period is up. I now get a new
one. It's a great deal (like, er US$2 per week!) but the new offer is a Mac
I-Book 500 with basic 24X CD drive and lots of RAM. Guess what. No SCSI!
Firewire and USB only. No card slots either, I believe. Aaaarrrrgggghh.
Peripheral obsolescence!
Is there a Firewire to SCSI adapter that suits both scanning and storage?
Are USB adapters any good? What the hell was wrong with SCSI-2 anyway?!
