I am looking for *any* kind of way to get a bread board into the B2000 co-processor slot. If there is a board on the market that will fit into this slot, please let me know. At the present, the only solution that I have come up with is to take a standard ZorroII proto, hack off the extra 14 pins and re-wire the power and ground planes. IS THERE A BETTER WAY? -- Steve -Raz- Berry Disclaimer: I didn't do nutin!

NES, Inc.'s Co-Processor Proto bd/Video Proto bd will be available by mid
Augest. (This board's Power and Ground grids are the same as on our
Zorro-II/PC-XT Proto board, the most noticable difference is that we
placed the Pin Grid Arrays in the middle of the Copper-Proto bd).
The board will plug into either the Co-Processor slot or the
Video slot. (When in the Video slot the floppy chassis needes to be
moved or the board shortened. We did it this way to give the user the
option of more bd space at the inconvience of moving the floppy mounting
chassis or you do not need the room then cutting the board.) The Proto
bd has 3 15x15 Pin-Grid-Arrays plus a very good Power and Ground grid.
The Ground pins on the Co-Processor connectors are connected to the
GND grid. The board will accept DIP ICs on 300, 600, 900 and 400 mil
grids. The Power grids are layed out for easy placement of decoupling
caps.
The price is $74.95 plus $3.00 shipping.

And only $49.95 plus shipping for the Zorro II/AT board. Little
higher volume there! :-)
