   Re: Our tech overlords decided the B017

   For all we know that's Photoshop. I have better vision looking through a   
   pair of beer goggles.   
      
   Can you partake in the creative process and sendt me some feelthy-feely   
   pictures of your B017? All the Tool has right now on it is the extract   
   from the INMOS publication, no images. Nothing on the actual card.   
      
   Odd. Copyright for -BOTH- INMOS -AND- IBM. Not unknown, the Actionmedia   
   has Intel and IBM copyrights.   
      
   I can't unblur the numbers on the lower edge by the copyrights. Suggests   
   an IBM P/N, but I can't make out the number of characters. Ex. 91F9768,   
   two digits, letter, then four digits.   
      
   Big Xilinx is possumbly an all-in-one gate array that serves as the MCA   
   interface [and much more].   
      
   5.0000 MHz?   
      
   The DB37 pinout is in INMOS pubs [saw it last night].   
      
   The earliest TRAMs communicated at 20Mbit/s, much faster than the period   
   ethernet's 10Mb/s.
