Reader B.C. from Milford DE writes in to ask:
"I have data on a SCSI backup hard drive that I need to download. I have all new Macs and cannot connect the drive to my computer. Can you help me find someone who can help me?
Unfortunately, both SCSI and floppies have been phased out of the Mac world. Your best bet is to find a user group with a member who has a G3 level (or earlier) Mac. These may even have a SCSI and USB port. Once a legacy Mac is located, just hook up the SCSI and burn the data to DVD or CD. We keep a beige G3 on hand with SCSI, USB and FIREWIRE, CD burner AND floppy -- just for that reason.
