The Perkin-Elmer 68K boxes use VersaBUS. The NCR Tower uses MultiBUS.
Many boxes have no bus at all or vestigial buses (low end Alpha Micro).
The New Frank Hogg QT-20X has a proprietary bus. The SS-50 bus is used
by GIMIX. The SS-64 bus was used by Helix. I think Altos uses something
different, but I'm not sure what.
Your close enough though. Most good 68K boxes are VME. Still, I'm
buying the Frank Hogg QT-20X. The prices is *much* better.
