Where does one get a reasonable prototyping card for PC/XT/AT
machines?

In the old days there was a company who made a mostly-blank S-100
bus board with lots of empty area, with power busses, and with
the address decode and data buffering that you _always_ need
actually provided in etch.  You added the chips for those and then
started wiring your kludge.  It was even reasonably cheap.

For the PC/XT/AT all I've seen are the ones from Vector.  They cost
$60-$70 and have no basic logic provided.

Anyone know of anything better?

Thanks,
