While I am not an English major, SCSI stands for Small Computer Systems
Interface. It is pronounced as an acronym "skuzzee", as in someone who
hasn't bathed in a month. So, "a" would be appropriate.

interface? (For the English majors, should it be "an SCSI" or "a SCSI" since
the pronunciation can vary?)

minutes, then boot up. The scanner is not recognized at the scsi scan on
initial boot. Some time into the boot process the carriage will move about
Needless to say I am at a frustrated loss. Is this thing defective??? Or am
I missing something?
