I just can't see spending $800 for a Nubus expansion on a PCI Powermac.
Even back in the day, it'd be a tough call to justify that against just ... keeping your old Mac alongside your new PCI machine. Especially given that in a professional situation, you don't want to tear down and rebuild a (presumably) working and stable system that you've already worked out the glitches and niggles on, for something that looks (and possibly acts) like a kludge. Lost time is lost income, yo.
Seems questionable to have the NuBus run over a long cable like that.
Well, Digidesign & Avid had been doing that for years already with their Nubus-Nubus expansion chassis. 10MHz isn't that tricky, apparently.
Might be able to use a PC running a Mac Emulator, but I doubt they support the low level code that would likely be necessary to get it to work. :?:
The first test would be, can the emulated Mac see and use *any* Mac-only PCI card, sitting in the PC?
