The series of Emerald Computer boards are close to what you are asking for
M680XX, ram, rom, serial port, floppy port, and parallel port with
rom debugger and ports for cp/m-68k, forth, and os9. Prices start at less than
$500 for a M68008 based system and go up from there. The cards make good
general purpose controllers.
Their address/tele is:
Emerald Computers (503) 654-9666
4000 S.E. International Way, Suite F 203
Milwaukie, Or 97222
On the higher end we have a high performance SBC targeted for similar market.
We have a 12MHz (or 16MHz) M68020 SBC with paging mmu, 1 to 8MB of ram, rom,
M68881 FP, 2/4 serial, floppy, and SCSI interface. We have had two functional
4-layer proto systems since April, and will start 1st production run in
Sept/Oct when the UNIX port is finished. Prices will start at about $1,500 for
board level, and about $3,500 for a system with 2mb ram, 20mb hard disk,
800k floppy, and 2/4 user UNIX configuration. Drop us a card for the
information packet, no calls yet please.
