Randy,
I recall there being 96 connectors. Close enough to 100 as S-96 doesn't quite cut it it seems. <g>
>Actually, no, Heath had a different bus used in their 8080 and 8085 computers, at least the original ones, which instead of individual bit toggles or a hex keypad, used an OCTAL keypad. I have an article around somewhere that explains building an i/o board for one, it wasn't even 100 pins, something like 68 comes to mind (since I am lazy by nature an don't want to go down to the basement to dig out the old magazine < g >).

>>Please correct me if I'm off track here, but didn't the folks at Heath come up with the S-100 bus for their Heathkit machines?
Best,
