No, I have not. I'll keep it in mind -- thanks for the suggestion!

Subject: Building extender boards -- finding protoboards w/edge
connectors?
Hey all--
I'm going to need to build an extender board or two for my Imlac in
the next few weeks toaid in debugging. (Now that I have the power
supplies up and running, there are a lot of stuck bits here and there
in the CPU and it'd be really, really useful to have easy access to
the chips for testing.)
The cards have an 80-pinedge connector (40 pins per side) with a
.125" spacing (same as S-100).
I figured I'd look fora source of prototype boards & edge connectors
with .125" spaced fingers on them and build a couple by hand, but I'm
not having a great deal of luck finding the boards. Digi-Key comes
close in that they actually have S-100 prototype boards listed, but
of course theyhave none instock; this -
http://www.digikey.com/product-detail/en/4610/V1111-ND/146808 - is
close but has too few connectors.
I suppose I could track down an S-100 prototyping / extender board
and hack it down to the right size but I'd rather not destroy
something. And since I'm only going to need one or two of these I
don't see a lot of sense in having some fabricated.
Any suggestions on where to find parts for this project?
Thanks,
Josh
