UNIBUS, BI/CI etc
If we include alpha that would also expand into EISA, ISA, PCI,
and others (I won't mention Turbolaser :)

Looks good - we had an initial list of DEC info at
http://www.netbsd.org/Library/Hardware/Machines/DEC/
of which only
http://www.netbsd.org/Library/Hardware/Machines/DEC/vax/
has any real information.
I'd be more than willing to rework the perl script that generates
the /vax/ tables from the datafiles if its any help. We can also
probably host it on www.netbsd.org (and by extension all of the
netbsd www mirrors) if that is any help!
