Just one small nit.  It is just the Flashpoint cards about which
BusLogic hesitated to release specs.  They have recently changed their
policy and drivers [beta, I believe] for these adapters are now
available for Linux.  Leonard N. Zubkoff <lnz@dandelion.com> has
worked closely with BusLogic on the development of Linux drivers.  As I
understand it, the company has been very forthcoming for sometime now
in support of this effort.  I use a BT948 and _could_not_be_happier_.
This is a company that deserves support - and they make a great product
to boot.  (Thanks, again to Leonard and Dandelion Digital)
