An ARM CPU on the S100 bus

["G. Beat" <gregor...@gmail.com>]

These System-On-Module (SoM) packages offer some interesting capabilities.
Ethernet / wireless support and integration on the S-100 card being a BIG Plus.

Connectivity is replacing most storage media for data/program transfers, 
such a board could serve the role as a surrogate for other S-100 boards.

Depending on implementation, an ARM based S-100 board (Linux) could 
also eliminate the need fir a separate PC to address -- uploads, interfacing, etc.

Intel's migration to NUC, now in their 4th generation, shows another paradigm shift
and options.  It could sit inside a S-100 case -- or attached to back of monitor (VESA), being a super-smart terminal/workstation.
