  If you mean Atron then yes I've heard of them. if fact, I was just
searching for info on them this morning. I have two full length IBM PC
style cards that are both marked "Atron", one plugs into an 8 bit ISA slot
and the other plugs into a 16-bit ISA slot. The cards have a ribbon cable
that connects them together at the top. One is marked "Master Break Trace"
and the other is marked "Slave Break Trace". (looks like they're for an
emulator). Both boards have a large male 3U type connector on the outside.
I've posted a picture at
<http://www.intellistar.net/~rigdonj/ebay/boards.jpg>. FWIW I pulled these
out of an old 286 Compaq Deskpro. I wanted to get the drive but it was
already gone :-(
