I'm looking for a company which makes A/D and D/A converters for the VMEbus.
The tricky part is that I want them MUXed as little as possible to get
maximum speed out of them.  Anyone out there know of a company that would
be good to contact?  I'd be happy with as few as 4 channels per board.

Also, I'm looking for a board that can pretend that it's a disk drive.  I've
seen them for machines like the IBM PC where it uses either EPROMs, EEPROMs
or bubble memory to store info and look like a disk drive to the system.  
Has anyone heard of these things (or anything vaguely similar) being 
attachable to VMEbus?  I just need a place to read and write data, but have 
no moving parts in it.

Please email any responses, and I'll summarize if it looks like enough are
interested.  Thanks.
