@Acill
Nope.

A Draco consist of atleast 3 parts:
Rastaban: passive Backplane with Zorro2 and costum Draco-slots (faster than Z3,
and much easier to handle).

Altais (sp) : Pretty much a RetinaZ3 for the Draco-Slots.

??? (forgot name) : CPU-board with RAM, ROM, CIAs and interface to Rastaban.

Often you will also find Draco-versions of the VLab-motion and Tocatta.
1. Make an announcment.
2. Wait a while.
3. Check if it can actually be done.
4. Wait for someone else to do it.
5. Start working on it while giving out hillarious progress-reports.
6. Deny that you have ever announced it
7. Blame someone else

@Dr_OhSoWrong

And how does one connect a Mediator to a Z2-bus ?
And how does one connect a ColdFusion to a system without a real CPU-slot
(the Eltanin is pretty much the whold Draco).

And I better don't start on how "likeley" both Shark and Coldfusion are to
ever appear in reality  :-o
