I have a box with one of these. I noticed the bussing appeared to
be non-standard, but exactly what is the problem here?
I also have a couple of Netcom HV1148 backplanes that
appear to be non-standard. Any experience with these?
What can you do with these backplane? What sort of Q-Bus system
can you use them in?
Thanks,
Dave
