Probably, but no TK50, then, and no possibility to
patch the ROMs and
use the SCSI interface as a real SCSI interface (I've been trying to
get back to that project, but stalled when I realized that I don't have
a map of which byte corresponds to which socket).
That would of course be nice, but is there such a patch?

I have a T128 that gave up a 5380 for a Supra
controller (but I did a
nice, clean job and installed a socket for later - it's my only *bootable*
8-bit SCSI card).
I'll see if I can sacrifice a Mac on the VAX/Supra altar, but I'm having a
hard time justifying the sacrifice of a working machine for a bare-bones
(piranha-eaten is a better description =) 0,9 VUP VAX.
