[Dave Handa (dave]

SD1, SD2 and SD3 are the Ferrari issued computers.  SD3 is the latest, and
most current.

I recanted to Ric, but apparently not the whole list.

My memory seems rather shot at the moment.  Could someone help remind  
me of the proprietary computers that ferrari gives only to their  
dealers, and the main uses of that computer, other than diagnostics?   
I am thinking of ones that are specific to either the 355 or the 360.

Thanks
John
