How much work is involved? Yes, it's called an "expansion chassis" ;^). Seriously, I am just getting ready to start on this very project. Soon I should have a fairly simple procedure outlined with some sources listed for parts. The one item that may be hardest to find is a good (cheap) box that can be easily cut to provide access for the port on the side, and also for any cables/power lines in the back. It would need to be about the size of a typical zorro card, and I need to make a provision for killing EMI emmissions. I hope to get started on this RSN ;^) (I've been thinking about it for a long time). Once I get the project done I'll post the info on it. -- --Steve DISCLAIMER: All opinions are my own (I don't speak for Convex) ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- {uunet,sun}!convex!swarren; swarren@convex.COM
