If you add a bunch more slots, and they are all powered... we could overload the PS. People tend to fill empty slots with whatever they can, sometimes with power hungry boards. Personally, I could see me putting a PCT and Z80 on one of these, and maybe some other coprocessor cards that aren't used at the same time and watch the PS go wonkers.
It's a shame that more board designers didn't follow Apple's lead with the Disk ][ Controller card, for example, and switch off most of the card when it is idle. -michael 8-voice music synthesizer using NadaNet networking! Home page: http://members.aol.com/MJMahon/
