Hi Jaco,

I am very honoured to be associated with Steve ;-) but I don't even have 1% of
his knowledge.

Anyway, I have read several times that some very old boards made for 8bits
modulsets were not compatible with 32 bits modules but I have never read about
incompatibilities between 32 bits boards and other modules.
With the right power supply, I have been able to use :
- Senator, Roma 68020, MM II, RebelV and Risc 1MB modulsets
- with the MM II's modular board, the Risc's Munich board and the Senator's
Exclusive board.

Hope this helps regard,

Alain
