They make the Inboard 1000 which I have (1.5 meg ram internal for Amiga 1000, I think they have versions for other Amigae). I got it more than a year ago, and it died a while ago (I had left the computer on all day & when I came back the screen was yellow & the power light was blinking. We have bad power around here). I called them, and they said to send it back. Three days later, I got a call saying it had been fixed and was on the way back, UPS second day air. This was WELL out of the 90-day warranty. The charge? $9.50. That's right, NINE DOLLARS and FIFTY CENTS. This was for shipping... they didn't even charge me for parts (a chip had gone bad). Seriously though, these guys are great. If you ever need expansion memory, I wholeheartedly reccommend them. -- James A.

Would you be so kind as to give me info, spec's priceing etc ? I notice that your board was 1.5 Meg are the other configurations ? Thanks in advance... John Daly daly@hpdml93
