Interesting... On my list of fun ideas is porting some flavor of *NIX to 
  a CompuPro 32016-based system. I've got the CPU board stashed away, 
and enough other CP/Viasyn parts to make a go of it, except perhaps mass 
storage. I'd have to borrow the DISK3 from an 8/16 system, or puzzle out 
one of the random "SCSI" cards I picked up along the way...

Finding a 1MB RAM24 would be tough, let alone more than one. I recall 
seeing other large boards advertised in Micro Cornucopia in the late 
80s, but haven't ever run across that generation (386 era) of S-100 gear 
since or in person.

I might play along at home on a big RAM board project.
