[comp.sys.ibm.pc.hardware] card shapes

stecz@hotwheel.dell.com (John Steczkowski) (02/28/91)

I have been involved in a discussion at work, and I decided a good way to
settle it, is to ask here...

What I would like to do is compile a list of cards shaped like:

    _ ________________________________________________

        card edge connector       "overhangs passed bus connector"

What I am trying to describe is a card that "hangs below" the edge of the
bus slot.  Most cards go straight from the top edge of the bus connector.

If you know of a card shaped like the one above, it doesn't matter what the
card does as long as it is shaped like the above, please send me the name
of the manufacturer and the model number, also mention if the card is currently
available from the manufacturer (is it ancient or not?).  Please email to the
address below, we can pretty much guarantee that this isn't of general
interest.  (if it is, I will summarize).
