A CompactPCI-based computer system including a chassis and a mid-plane board. The mid-plane board forms bus circuitry, and is positioned between a front and back of the chassis. The chassis and the mid-plane board combine to define a plurality of CompactPCI form factor slots, including front slots and back slots. At least one of the front slots and at least one of the back slots are system slots configured to receive and provide independent bus connections for respective CompactPCI form factor system processor cards. In one preferred embodiment, the mid-plane board is configured to provide a bussed connector at a first front slot and at a second back slot, and a transition connection at a first back slot and a second front slot. With this one preferred embodiment, a one- or two-unit wide system processor card can be loaded into the first front slot, and another one- or two-unit wide system processor card can be loaded into the second back slot.
