It would be great to have a way of expanding the board. From your standpoint, the advantage might be larger volumes. I was ready to order and then thought about what I would do with it. I have a high speed serial interface (RX8E) and that works for me. What I would like to have is a way to experiment with some other peripherals that I will never have and see how to virtualize them in an FPGA or CPLD. > Probably.

I respect that this is real and not some paper design that gets discussed forever and comes to nothing. I also see all that board area with nothing on it and think why not populate it with a layout for some other things. What I am wishing for are Omnibus and Unibus adapters to an FPGA. > Kind regards > > Philipp Regards, -chuck http://www.chdickman.com/
