Yeah, I would have to say the biggest omission from the iMac (and new G3's) is the lack of SCSI. My main reasons are for attachment of my old but very reliable and good scanner and 230Mb MO drive with all sorts of backups on it :) Also, I've been looking all over fro a CD-RW and I think it would be much more difficult to install one of those babies on a new G3 system. Who knows.
When I get one of those puppies (maybe sooner than I'd thought), I will definitely be getting a SCSI card of some sort.
