In planning for an Alpha upgrade, we would like to maintain our existing Q-Bus peripherals for as long as they last. It makes no sense to get TC or F+ interfaces for said peripherals, because they are old (in age and in technology). The ideal solution would be to have a TC or F+ to Q-bus interface, thus using our VAX3800 just like an expansion box( no, I do not want to make it part of the Cluster). I believe there is such a beast for the VAX4000/100, and would like to know if something similar is/will be available for Alpha systems. thanks +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ | Nik Zapantis | zapantis@uvphys (BITNET) | | Dept. of Physics & Astronomy | 45393::zapantis(HEPnet/SPAN) | | University of Victoria | zapantis@uvphys.phys.UVic.CA | | Victoria, BC | Phone: (604)721-7729 | | V8W 3P6 | FAX: (604)721-7715 | +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
