The question was something like : "Can I use S-bus expansion products to add S-bus slots to the Sparcstation SLC ?". To quote kessler@suneast.East.Sun.COM (Tom Kessler) : "Think of it as a zero slot S-bus with a monochrome framebuffer permanently attached to it. " It seems that the SLC has the Sbus architecture built into it, but "wired" out of it. The one S-bus connection is the mono frame buffer which is wired onto the board, no Sbus connectors going out. This means : NO ! you cannot fiddle with the SLC and add Sbus slots to it, what a shame...
