Well, now that the gentlebeing from Alaska has kindly posted the address, I can
post a couple things I do know (even though I didn't remember the name and
address of the company).

The Second Wave expansion box(s) use the original NuBus, which has a speed of 10
Mhz.  Also, it is -not- compatible with NuBus Bus Master cards, so cards like
the Radius Rocket don't work in it (this info from Steve at Radius - he also
says that Second Wave is working on Bus Master compatibility...)

I plan to get a full info package from Second Wave, and I'll come back with
information afterwards...
