It only had about 50 more pins than it needed but it was a hell of a deal 
on milsurp edge connectors. The SDT bus used mostly in industrial 
controllers only had 56. I designed cards and a backplane for a client 
with a severe case of NIH with 50 . You could get away with all sorts of 
stuff at 4 or even 6 MHz.
