A Processor Direct Slot (Commonly called PDS on macs) is simply an extension
of the processor's I/O lines to a header.  This has the advantage of
allowing a hardware designer to make most anything for the machine,
including a processor accelerator.


They're also called a 'processor slot' on amigas. ;)

However, Jeri stated that she'll be suing some sort of narrow ZorroII'ish
bus, so I dont have much to worry about.
