- Does anyone know a source for VESA local bus 486DX-50 motherboards,
- or an estimated time for widespread availability?
-
- I was planning to purchase an OPTI local bus board from PC Turbo Corp.
- in La Puente,CA, for $1090 (MB & VIDEO), but they now claim to be out
- of stock and waiting for VESA boards to come in next month. All other
- companies I've contacted seem to be totally clueless on the topic!
-
- If anyone has leads on:
-
- o Curently Available equipment
- o Suggestions FOR/AGAINST local bus
- o Estimated Widespread Dist. time of VESA bus machines
-
- please contact me via email -> edh@slrt1.sensor.ri.cmu.edu
-
- I'll summarize if interesting/useful responses are received.
