[rescue] SCSI-2 Term Q

I used to think I was up to speed on thngs, but as I age, I start to worry.

I am aware that 'it is said' that published specs for different paltforms
(Sun Apple IBM) spec'ed different resistances for their SCSI cabling.

But my question is.. Are all (not counting active v passive) [SE 50-pin
SCSI-2] *terminators* the same (ie compatible)?

If there are resisters in a Terminator, are they all the same ?

Not that anyone here are apple guys, but the practical issue is: can I put
a Sun Active ('regulated') 50-pin SCSI-2 terminator on a SCSI-2 SE device
on an external SCSI chain connected to an Apple PowerMac.

SCSI is SCSI? right?
