This is especially attractive because no UNIBUS backplane is needed, just a UNIBUS cable from the Qniverter into the LH/DH-11. Perhaps it's not cost-effective for wholly new systems, but it's a great way to avoid trashing newly obsoleted LH/DH-11's when your VAX750's and VAX780's are upgraded to MicroVAX-II's.
