Hi Joe,
John Monahan at the s100computers.com website has produced a buffered
prototype board and I believe it was Josh Bensadon that tried to maximize
the plated through hole area in another design.
John’s design can be seen here
http://www.s100computers.com/My%20System%20Pages/Prototype%20Board/Prototype%20Board.htm
I don’t have a picture of Josh’s board but both boards show in inventory
and can be ordered through Todd Goodman.
The inventory is shown at the link below after scrolling down to the S-100
section. Todd’s contact info is located near the bottom of page.
