Is there really enough interest in such a thing to make boards?
This subject pops up now & then, gets discussed, and disappears again.
I did myself some qbus-ide boards, but never finished the software.
It is simply to easy to buy qbus-scsi or unibus-scsi boards on ebay. You
just have to wait for it.
And if somebody/anybody picks it up again, it won't be cheaper then the
$200 on ebay, so why?
Actually, the only reason I could think is, that we have less and less
working 50 pin scsi drives, so "if" I would do it again, it would be
sd-flash. But what to do with the floppies & tapes ?

I would certainly pony up some $.
