So, things are moving forward. I also wanted to
get folk's opinion
on the need to actually produce
an SBC form factor board. In other words (and sort of in line with

original 11/20) is it OK to have the MEM11 be outside of the 11/20
chassis and connect via BC11A
(my replica) cables?
main problem would be now you'll have to come up with a box and a
power supply
As Ian stated in a subsequent post, it'll probably be something
like a
1U box with appropriate power
supply. When I get to the point of doing serious board layout, then
I'll start looking at board outlines
(with appropriate mounting holes and power supply connectors) that would
fit in a reasonable
enclosure.
I'm hoping that my "prototype" will be sufficient where I don't need to
re-layout the board for
production. There may be extra pads for stuff (various test
connectors/test points) that won't
be stuffed for production...but that's all a bit down the road.
I assume you meant SPC (quad unibus) and not SBC
Yes, typo! :-(
