My NorthStar Horizon has 12 slots. A complete 256 color Microangelo system takes 9, 10 if the "genlock" (what is a "genlock"?) also takes a slot. I think it supports up to 8 CPU boards. Then there's the FPU, floppy controller, hard drive controller, tape backup controller, 6 or 8 RAM boards, a Cromemco 8PIO, a clock, Screensplitter video board, A/D board, sound board(s), cassette, video digitizer...
Maybe I should quit while I'm only up to 38 slots.
I don't want to replace the motherboard. I want to keep it original. Has anyone here ever connected a second motherboard, using heavily shielded and buffered cables, to an S-100 system with limited slots?
Oh yeah, the interface board in each box would take another slot.:wow:
