I have bought some Motorola MVME-187Cs on ebay and plan to put togeter
some boxes.  I would like to loan/donate/sell these boxes out to
developers that want to help out but don't have any 88k hardware.  I
think these would be great boxes to get the port going because:

 - documentation on these are available.
 - 187-Bug is a pretty useful lowlevel debugger.
 - OpenBSD has an older port that could be referenced.
 - The hardware is reasonably compact.(relative to my DG equiptment at
least)
 - There are a few people out there whith similar hardware(I think)
   including 188, 197, 198s.  What is the most popular 88k hardware
   anyway?

The specs on these boards are something like:
 - 25MHz 88100 + 88200s
 - 32Mb RAM
 - 187-Bug on eeprom
 - at least 2; probably 4 serial ports
 - 1 parallel port
 - SCSI
 - Ethernet
 - clock, timers, nvram etc.
 - VME form factor

Anyone interested?
