A quick search suggests both Bookmaster and DCF use a library called GDDM

Transtech also made a B008-compatible TRAM motherboard: the TMB08 iirc?

Closest thing to a Transputer from TI I can think of were the C-series DSP
chips: eg TMS 320C40, although they used 6x byte-wide parallel ports not the 4x
bit-wide

Some of you might recall that Apple released a series of machines based
on the Newton OS in the early 1990s. There were eight models in total
from Apple, and a few more from third parties who licensed both the
hardware and software to make eg. ruggedized handhelds, or "smart"
(landline)
I’ve got a 3/260 (in storage sadly). IIRC, it’s pretty fussy about what boards
go in what slots, so moving to the end might be tricky.
I never tried an extender card though.
Not very helpful, sorry.

I had a Gen6 Golf wagon. Remarkably useful luggage capacity, but I don’t think
it would have fitted a full-depth rack through the tailgate.
Plenty of mag tape or SD-card space though.
