Argh.  That would've been nice.

Agreed.  Hell, I'd probably try to buy the SCSI card alone for $30 or so,
just to keep around in case you need an extra.  It's a decent card if it's
the NCR chipset described before.

If they can get it to POST, then it's likely you can figure out what it is
(they'd have to put some RAM in it temporarily, but I wouldn't doubt that
they'll do this to facilitate a sale).
