At last reading, it has been several weeks since anyone has even peeped 
on this group.  For a while there, it was looking like people really
were interested, then interest flagged, not smoothly, slowly, no, it just
ENDED.
I helped stir things up last time, so here we go again.
I have heard from Rick Rodman, after having passed him ALL of the text
propogated on this group, and he wants to hear from some of you.  He has
approved my net.activities regarding our group, and wants more input.
He was formerly involved with a coprocessor design effort, which I guess 
was dropped with the advent of the PD32.  He has running code for the 
Bare Metal skeleton, complete with host interface.

He says: Ask for these features: lots of room for SIMM RAM or 1M chips
	(note: why not design for 4M?), SCSI port - just a single chip these
	days - floppy disk controller - ditto - NTSC video output, Hi-res
	D/A and A/D with RCA phono connectors, telephone I/O with DTMF
	generate and detect as well as A/D, D/A, ring generator et al...
	and modular connectors for serial I/O.

Designers NOTE:
	"Yes, a NuBus board with a '332 or '532 for $200 would be
	great, count me in (did I misquote somebody here?)
	Yes, a replacement AT motherboard would also be great, count me in
	there too.  Get these people's names and addresses so I can write
	them, maybe?"
