Our new QBone Dual is now in stock and ready for shipping!
An advertisement for the QBone Dual. The card is displayed with a glass of champagne and a single red rose. The headline reads: "A new year. A new DEC romance." Callouts point to: Eight user-addressable status LEDs, 10/100 Ethernet RJ45, Custom designed handled, Two Qwiic/StemmaQT interfaces, Redesigned construction to DEC specs for reliability and easier installation, and Two warm-swappable Q-Bus driver modules. The copy reads: At DECromancer, we love DEC as much as you do. Our redesigned QBone Dual adds not just memory, hard drive, and floppy disk emulation to your Q-Bus based PDP-11 or VAX; it's got future-proof peripherals like USB and Qwiic I2C expansion -- and soon, Ethernet. QBone Dual is ready to order, so start a new DEC romance in 2025. A footnote reads: With new software downloadable later this year. Circle no. 69 on reader service card. The bottom shows the company logo and website, decromancer.ca.

In light of incoming tariffs, we've moved heaven and earth to early-ship out all outstanding orders, including our new QBone Dual product. For everyone else: we're hoping this situation ends as quickly as it starts, if not sooner.
