Hello Chuck,

I didn't know such a cpu existed. Is it actually qbus? Some of the
cpus I have seen on Ebay look like a Qbus card with a plastic connector
rather than a card edge. I was under the impression that after the
KA660? that DEC went to a design that wasn't really Qbus, for the cpu.
I am just going by what I see on Ebay, Though. What's the real story on
this?
