Yea, I have enough of the various parts for ~25 boards. I *think* I may have
more in the ?basement? of my shop but I won?t know until I start to unpack it.
I?ll eventually have to come up with some sort of alternative (not pin compatible)
but that?s OK since one of the things that sucks up the board space is the 5v to
3.3v level translation (and going to/from tri-state, etc, etc).

Anything optional will be in sockets. I?ll be
putting the UNIBUS transceivers
in sockets because I can?t afford the overage that I?d need to provide to the
board house for assembly.
I'm starting to get sorry I sold off my surplus NS8641s from Software Results
20 years ago. To be fair, I did get over $4 each for them, so at the
time, it was
a good deal for me (ISTR retail was $7.50 even then, so I got a good spread
on the price).
I do have some left, but handfuls, not armloads.
