Save for your limited to the 1meg of ram (no CD) and the power is
limited. the vt103 was designed as a small system and if you smoke
the PS you may have a time finding another.
I didn't say it was perfect, just that it would work :-)
I'm about to expose a lack of understanding of Q-bus, but do you need a CD
slot for uVAX-II memory given that it has the PMI (private memory
interconnect)? As you can tell, I'm not up there with Q-bus specifics and
all the uVAX Q-bus systems I've used came with a suitable back plane (at
vast cost at the time from Digital :-)
