[rescue] Looking for a Sun SBus Expansion Adapter (501-1840, X1071A, X1072A)

[Dan Moisa]

I don't have that, but neither has the guy who sold it. I think they
sometimes appear as "sbus expansion cards" every once in a while. Don't be
fooled by the serial expansion cards or similar items. I forget which
handbook it was in, but it shows the layout and how many pins it has, etc.

Also, we folks here might need to coordinate maybe a bit more on those
auctions, or not :) I was also giving some offers to the guy, you nabbed
it! I think I've gotten into bidding wars over Sun stuff with a few of you
over time.

Dan.
