The tall skinny front panel, usually paved with connectors, doesn't
help. Most people then silkscreen the panel with easily-chipped black
ink lettering in random fonts and locations. The overlay thing is
about as much hassle as sending out panels to be anodized and
screened, and looks cool.


I've looked at your pictures and I agree. I have a handful of VME
boards laying around, along with a dual connector extender card, and
maybe a backplane.
