Yes. The qniverter for one. DEC also made some special implementations for
the 11/84 and 11/94, which really is the 11/83 (and 11/93) CPU and a
qbus-unibus adapter.

They do exist. They are not *that* strange beasts. CMD made them, Viking
too, and a few more that my memory fails to recollect right now.

Hmmm, that would be the RM06/12 I think. A MASSBUS to SCSI converter.
