[sdiy] backplane connector recommendation?

[Tim Parkhurst]

Actually, I'm also working on a project that needs to connect several
cards to a backplane. I was thinking of using ISA or PCI style PC
motherboard connectors. My only concern is finding a reliable
long-term supply. Jameco carries them, but they actually seem to be a
little scarce otherwise.

or here's the search for all of Jameco's card edge connectors

Connectors%20%2F%20Card Edge&category=304058

Any thoughts? Dave, would any of these work for your project? Some can
be had for under a dollar each, so the price is right.
