[Yasuhiko Watanabe]

Thanks many people, who giving me the response. I will contact these
companies.
Thanks again!!

We're using a 4D/20, not a 35, but this information might be useful anyway.
We've connected an external VME box to our 4D/20 using a board called

	A32/D32 VME-VME Adaptor with DMA controller model 413

	from Bit3 Computer Corporation
	     8120 Penn Avenue South
	     Minneapolis, Minnesota 55431-1393
	     (612) 881-6955  Telex 4997016:BITTHRE
	     FAX (612) 881-9674

This is actually much more than a VME extension, but the VME extender we
tried previously caused all kinds of bus problems (and kernel panics!)

This isn't an official endorsement of the product, but it has proven
effective and reliable for us.  Hope this helps.


Try this company

Performance Technologies Inc.
435 West Commercial Street
East Rochester, NY 14445
Tel: (716) 586-6727


If you are interested, I believe the latest issue of BYTE (or 
Dr. Dobb' Journal, or it may be something else ?) magazine has 
the bus conversion info. and companies.

I can look it up for you but it would have to be tomorrow.
I left it at home.
