I realize this thread is nearly a year old, but Doug, could you tell me
where you got those nice short cables for your Zeta? It makes for a very
neat package.

Thanks Doug
Yes the bottom board is the parportprop.
I'll Post my N8VEM SBC pictures when i get a chance.
I still have to build the Color VDU and the Disk I/O V3.
Soon Ill have 3 vintage computers and then maybe an s100.

Doug,
Is that a parportprop on the bottom level of your Zeta?
That is quite a nice layout and cable configuration... :-_)

Note: I don't use messenger, or skype, or facebook, chat programs in
general. Having always-on open communication links through massive public
servers I don't have control over seems like too much of an invitation to
be infected by a virus or bot. It is bad enough that my Mac wants to stay
in periodic contact with Apple's cloud. Skype was tempting before Microsoft
bought them. There have been too many examples of remote session links
being abused by vendor employees. Even "back to my mac" makes me nervous.
There was a recent episode where Apple cooperated with a social engineer
and compromised someone's entire electronic persona. If you want to speak
with me, calling me on the phone works well, and you don't have to wonder
if the electronic mail got through or not. When I say "Hello, this is
Doug", you know who you are talking to. Just in case you were curious.

Jim,

You can make these cables yourself with a couple of IDC connectors and some
ribbon cable (recycle an old IDE or floppy cable?!).
Here are some instructions: http://reprap.org/wiki/MakeIDCCable

Thanks,
Sergey
