we've all seen lots of PC AT/XT bus support for prototyping h/w
even with decoder logic etc on-board.  does the same exist for the
Nubus - or does the complexity of the slot manager etc. make it the
real challenge?  what i really want is a Nubus form factor board,
at least an application note to help getting on and off the bus, and
a start at some LightSpeed C support code. if it comes w/ decoder
logic etc., all the better.  my application requires reading and
writing 1MHz 16-bit parallel words, watching a timer (VIA) and logging
results.  i would rather not buy a national or GW instruments board - they
do more than i need, with an emphasis on conversion, and are slow.

somebody please help me out - i don't want to buy another IBM!^%$#^#
