SCSI Adapter for AGP compatability?

At work, a computer broke down, which uses a special video card that is AGP and needed to run a program we use on it. Looking through some older computers in the lab, (mostly Pentium II's), none have AGP slots, just PCI.

A guy in my lab called up the IT dept. to ask what we can do, and they said all we need was a SCSI adapter. He emailed me asking if I thought that was a good idea, and I said it doenst even make sence. I told him it makes as much sence as adding more USB ports to make the AGP card fit, since SCSI was a hard drive interface.

SO my question...am I right; or is this just some crazy thing I have never heard of?
 
Might want to explain to him that you need an AGP video card or better yet one that goes in the "brown slot". Hopefully you can get throught to him. It seems like a funny situation.
 
What do you guys mean? I fixed my last AGP problem with 2 SCSI adapters - now my box it uber-1337!

[sorry, I had to]

That is pretty funny. I have no idea what AGP could have been mistaken for.
