Does anyone know where I can find new and used VME Bus parts and
boards.  I am interested in everything from chassis to cpu to ...
I'll summarize if there seems to be enough interest.

A couple of weeks ago I asked for info related to sources of VME bus
parts.  I got a limited response so I guess there isn't much interest
in VME in this newsgroup.  From the few responses that I did get it
appears that the best places to look are in local electronics
distributors.  Another possibility is to get your hands on an
electronics trade magazine and look for VME advertisements.  I would
imagine that you will pay premium prices for products that are geared
toward production operations so it may be true that VME is unfriendly
towards hackers.  I really don't know.
