Hi,

When I was using this board, I never saw the extension
But some people told me it was for a numeric processor

I checked in the chip of this epoch and found the AMD 9511

http://www.cpu-world.com/CPUs/9511/index.html

24 pins
Vcc on pin 2
Vss on pin 1
No idea if pin 3 of am9511 can be tied to gnd


Any idea ? is it compatible with what you can see on the board ?

That is a strange pinout.  I thought that perhaps the socket could also be for 
an Intel or Zilog peripheral chip.  However, I wasn't able to find one that 
matched the pins you listed above.

The board in Dave Dunfield's photo also has the same empty socket.  It could 
be for a proprietary expansion.  This is also a little strange.  I would think 
that any expansion would use headers like the others on the board rather than 
a socket.

Regards,
Mike
