   DEC joined the handwriting on the wall and offered a DSSI to
   SCSI converter, which looked like a single node on the DSSI bus.

   We picked up a few of these for our VAX 4000 (DSSI and Qbus) many 
   years ago after DEC stopped offering DSSI disks.  The SCSI bus works 
   fine for all out needs.

   We didn't want a third party solution on the Qbus because we had
   multiple realtime devices on that bus.
