I have a HM (Hotel Microsystems) Server with an eight slot backplane and
can choose from a
selection of '386' and '486' computer-on-a-board cards that I have. I
also have one 'IBM Blue
Lighting' card. Six of the other slots are filled with Sundance ISA
transputer cards (5 are 20MHz, 8Mb,
1 is 20MHz, 4Mb - I'm still half-looking (not in any real hurry) for 32
1Mbit memory chips to fully populate
the final card).
In their day, they were the system of choice at Cardiff University for a
few years, and they came as
a very small desktop with a three (or was it four?) slot backplane, or as
the server.
The server I have was the 'demonstration' model sent for evaluation. The
side panels are
perspex. It looks really nice with all those full length transputer cards
in there, blinking away.
