I have a pair of NeXTstation boxen, but would need to nab a BlueSCSI to pop into them for testing. Happy to help where I can.

Nice. Hadn’t run across that company before.

Yeah, it’s one of those sites that requires regular visits to see what’s been added to the inventory.

I’ve had luck finding various replacement parts using DV Warehouse.
