Allen Huffman mentioned to me that he got an adapter that allows you to
use an IDE device on a SCSI bus and intends to use it on his MM/1.  If
you can find one of those little jobbies, you should be able to plug an
IDE <-> Compact Flash adapter into it, and use a CF card on the IDE
bus.  I don't think you could as easily get other types of flash memory
cards work on the SCSI bus though.
