Re: [N8VEM-S100:2548] A new 16MB S100 Bus static RAM board

IFF we're going to do a volume purchase, than please list me for one board with the two associated daughter-boards. I assume that we're talking about a target cost of $25 given that there are three boards involved and thus more in^2.

If the intended panelization runs the daughter-boards across the top then perhaps three should be included given the overall board width as compared to an individual daughter-board length?

Or perhaps they can be panelized along one end of the motherboard?

(And it seems such a shame to see that real-estate across the upper-board go to waste! Oops, be "underutilized" :->.)
