Looking down into a full sized slot, you see three VME sockets

[  motherboard   ] <- These are full-height
[  Vid (bw)      ] <- Part of mobo. Uses no sockets
[  empty         ] <- Not sure how many of these.
[  empty         ]
==================
[MEM][   empty   ] <- Mem are about 2/3 height, empty
[MEM][   empty   ] <- sockets are about 1/3 height.

Okay, well, I have four of these, in different states of partfullness.
The best has NetBSD and up to 64MB.  They all have drives.  Some still
have SunOS on them.  They have StorageTek ID tags on them. I have 2
monitors, and a couple keyboards and mice to go around.

Uh... maybe you should come see them...
