I just noticed that Electronics Goldmine has a sale on 100 position, 0.100" card edge connectors for $1.49 the each. I know that these are hard to find at a decent price, so I thought I'd mention it:

Hi! Thanks Chuck! One word of caution to prevent confusion with our S-100 hobbyists... S-100 card edge connectors are 0.125" pitch connectors so these will not work for S-100. They will work fine as edge connectors for non-S-100 projects though.

Thanks and have a nice day!

Thanks Andrew, It's been so long since just about everything I use has been 0.100", I'd forgotten.

Oh well, never mind.

Hi Chuck! These are still perfectly good connectors but just not suitable for S-100. You could make you own bus design to use them. They are the same pitch as a PC ISA board card edge connector.

Actually I have a couple of these type of card edge connectors and considered using them but decided to go with the established "standards" even though they aren't terribly well adhered too.

Thanks and have a nice day!

So these edge connectors could connect to the 5.25" 8" flooppy driver card edge?
