Yes, I go there for info on my DECservers, but I know I
don't need any thinwire stuff (other than the thinwire-
TP converter I use for the 90LT and 90L+), so I just
never bothered looking that one up. I figured if anyone
needed one, they'd know.

The 90C is a small module that operate either stand-
alone (with the power supply) or in a DEChub 90. I
have just one power supply for my 90M, and I made an
adapter for the 90LT and 90L+ so they operate off a
little disk drive power supply. I don't use the 90LT
or 90L+ except for testing, and the 90M is a more
capable unit. I also have a DECserver 700 that is
even better, but space is limited right now. The
90M fits in with my Ethernet switches.
I really need to get a rack to mount this stuff in,
and a couple of 2U cases for my ATX motherboards.
