Hi Harold,

These boards are not made or supplied by a commercial outfit. They are made
and utilized by a group of hobbyists. When a new board is developed a
posting is made on a few relevant web forums such as this group, and on
www.S100Computers.com.   A group purchase to have a bunch of boards is done.
Typically one person volunteers to handle the order (I often do first
orders).  Typically 20-30 boards go into a new board batch order resulting
in boards costing about ~$15 a board.    Unfortunately (for you) this has
been going on for  a few years now so most people have their basic S100
boards and are moving "up" to more sophisticated ones.  

 

So for you to get a board you would have to start or wait to do another
batch of these boards yourself and/or get others to join in.   We have a
company called PCBcart.com make the boards for us. The Gruber files are
available here (http://n8vem-sbc.pbworks.com/w/browse/#view=ViewFolder
<http://n8vem-sbc.pbworks.com/w/browse/#view=ViewFolder&param=S-100%20Boards
> &param=S-100%20Boards ).   I or others can help you setup an order, but
remember there is a setup/processing/shipping fee (~$150) for any initial
board.  

 

>From time to time I or others come out with second (or third) improved
versions on these boards (so far we have done about 36 different boards).
This is often when newer users join in.  In fact if you even think you will
need a board,  that is the time to get one.  Unfortunately there has not
been a real need for an update on that IDE board at the moment (although if
a run is made one minor tweak could be incorporated).

 

Hope the above helps you and others that may be interested in these boards

 

John

I would like to purchase the S100 Dual IDE board that is listed on the N8VEM
site. I do not know how to order.

 

Thanks,

 

Harold
