Bill, I don't think I ever saw a GPM card in my years of Sol collecting.
There might have been one on ebay once, but it is a vague memory. The
appear to be exceedingly rare, which is probably the bigger reason why
your inbox wasn't flooded with offers. ;-)
As I recall, the GPM card was situated in the same address block as the
NS disk controller, so you couldn't have both in a system without
relocating one or the other.
BTW, I thought the canonical GPM software was the ALS development firmware.
