Andy Hartman's search for a RAM expansion board made me think of the following
question.

Since a Zorro III board is pin compatible with Zorro II, would/could a Zorro III
board be designed to work under both Z3 and Z2 specifications?  

Stupid question? Maybe, but wouldn't it be nice to use the same board in either
a 2000 or a 3000?  We already know that a Z2 will work in Z3 so long as it is
designed correctly.  Why not the reverse?
