A few people bought QED-993 boards from eBay in the last few years. For example 200688358479 or 200600166676. They are set up to use the standard 11/93 console panel, although only 4 async ports are implemented, not 8. While they may be faster than a real J11 CPU based board, they have compatibility issues. The main issue is complete lack of floating point support. I was unable to get either 2.11BSD or RSTS/E 10.1 to run on a QED-993. Trying to build the 2.11BSD kernel without using floating point instructions didn't help. Maybe it is fast for running RT-11. I lost interest and never bothered giving that a try.
