Richard,

thanks for the confirmation.

>Vendor ID of 0xfa3c is not currently assigned to any company.
>(Source: Vendor ID search at //www.pcisig.com on 10/26/2000).

So my wild guess worked. 0xFA3C (or $FA3C for people brought
up with a Motorola background) will do the job for a free vendor
ID anyone may use - and get a registered, free subvendor ID.

>(Did you mean that the DEC 64060 had a device ID of 0xfa3c?)

No, I just made up a hex number which I thought (within a second or two)
was unlikely to be reserved; it converted to decimal 64060, which
I found out after I used my calculator :-).
