I doubt this is possible.  While trying to obtain some spare 3com
boards recently, and discovering that they no longer made them, I 
asked 3com what their price would be to custom make some for us.

The person I spoke with told me he'd have to get back to me, and when he
did, he told me that 3com could not sell them at any price, because they
had already sold the rights to their board to DEC.  

No,  he had no idea what DEC was doing with their board.
