A year or so ago I bought some Q-bus cards from American Information
Systems.  NS32016 processor, floating-point, 3mb of memory.  All to be
a co-processor with an LSI-11 as bus arbiter and I/O processor.

Unfortunately, in the several months that elapsed while our (U. of CA)
lawyers and theirs were beating out a non-disclosure agreement, AIS
went bankrupt, and had nothing to disclose.  So here I am with some
interesting hardware, a couple of software tapes, and very little
documentation.

Is there anyone else out there in the same boat?  Or maybe slightly
better off?  We could trade sad stories or information, as seems
appropriate.
