........ and of course you can let us know all about the many current PCs supporting SCSI, UltraScsi, Firewire and many other past standards... non-Apple PC manufacturers are just as good at dumping older standards for connectivity (and anything else they fancy)...
Thanks for making my point. You confirmed that any support for your Mac ceased years ago, while XP was supported right until now. Firewire was almost exclusively pushed by Apple and SCSI was very much promoted by Apple as well - and both standards were quickly abandoned, while the very much PC standard USB is compatible all the way from 1.1 to 3.
