I've been hearing from a lot of people about the 020 SBCs what
each person seems to think is a good idea of what they would want
for an SBC. What I am looking for is something that mounts on top
of a 5.25" disk drive. GMX (or Gimix, depending on how far back
you go) makes such a board, called the GMX Micro-20. It is a 5.25 x 7"
board with an 020, 2 megs of ram, a SCSI interface, four serial ports,
two parallel ports and socket for 882 coprocessor. It can handle two
floppies up to 720k. What I am looking for is something similar to that,
to replace my 68008 SBC, which has similar capabilities and IS mounted
on top of a 5.25" floppy. (Well, sort of. It's mounted in an Integrand
Research case with mounts spaced just like the bolt-pattern of a 5.25" drive.)
The idea is I am wondering what systems are available similar to the Micro-20.
I'd also like to know approximate prices, if available. I know the Micro-20
goes for around 3,500 or so retail.
