Wait a second -- why do we need another incompatible bus architecture?  What
could be done to bring something akin to nubus to the Apple II?  I thought
nubus supported some type of "master/slave" architecture that would be
beneficial in a situation like this.  Does anyone know anything about
nubus and its possible integration with a II cpu?  Any of the apple guys?
