Okay, do you know a place where I could buy sich a thing ? I had enough trouble trying to get the one I already have on eBay...
Or maybe there's a specific name for these ancient holy devices ?

Why do I get a strange feeling that the guys who sold you this 60 switched back the SCSI port with the RS232 and got you jacked?

But i can't find any goddamn switch at the rear of my Scsi zip 100 device...

The RS232 port (originally fitted on the 60 cause it was supposed to be used later on as a TV out, like the 3k) is very tricky cause on the outside it looks exactly like a SCSI port. The only way to figure out if you have the Marion SCSI on it is to open up the 60 and look inside. The RS232 has a way too small board on the inside (if anyone has a picture of the SCSI how it is supposed to look like, please post it.)
