OK, thanks!

    >> Can you briefly describe what it was? 

I'm still curious about what it was: was it a stand-alone board with a
separate power supply, or did it plug into some sort of backplane? Did it use
something like SD cards for storage? And what was the MASSBUS connection
like: a set of 3 Berg headers into which one plugged the flat cables, or was
there some oddball connector that wound up connected to a standard MASSBUS
connector?
