I have the software for the BBK-S4 plus the manual.
Its on my website at
http://www.classiccmp.org/transputer under
specifications.
I also have one, but I am looking for the cables. I have the 8-pin cables,
but no 6-pin
which connects to the card. Its currently connected to my Ultra-2 along
with a PCMCIA
Sbus card which houses a SMT104 PCMCIA transputer card, Svideo card, and the
Creator 3D
Series 3 UPA card...
Cheers,
Ram

I've got an SS10 running an SM52 (501-2780 IIRC) that's been doing yeoman
service for the past eight years at least, 24x7 by 365. (It lost *both*
disks just two months ago, so I feel relatively safe tepting fate like this
;^)
I've got another SM52, but this 501-2444 doesn't play nice with the other
SM52 and may in fact not work properly at all. Never got back to checking it
out...
I'm still tickled at having a pair of SM91's - I'd never seen any 'til these
showed up on eBay. Got a late PROM for my SS20 and brought 'em up, but it
kept crashing when I wasn't paying attention, so they're waiting for more
round tuit's to accumulate.

Don't know if turning funny colors is called for, but my favorites are the
SWIFT combo cards - hme 100baseT and a "fast" wide SCSI interface.
Oddest one I've got is a Parsytec BBK-S4 Adapter - lets an SBus system talk
to Transputers. Of which I have none, but I guess it's good to Be
Prepared... Has a T222 'puter on it, but there's no software in sight.
I suddenly doubled the number of SBus cards I own when I was picking up
SS1000 system boards. I've got hold of 8 SM81's to load up an SS1000, and
three of the later "E"
system boards, and am hoping that it'll all work with a non-"E"
enclosure/backplane. That thing's heavy, I don't relish having to swap it to
make that happen...
If anyone's sitting on a CompuPro NS16032 board & docs and wants a bunch of
SBus or Qbus stuff, let me know.
