Well, I've finally worked up enough cash to get an Amiga 2000.  I now
have several questions for those of you out there who already have
one:
  - What is the best autoboot SCSI?
  - How much is the 2630 card?  What does it come with for that price?
  - Does GVPs 030 card support clock rates of up to 50 MHz?  What
    about the 2630?  Ie, can I stick a 50 MHz 68030 in there and still
    have it run?
  - What is this nibble mode DRAM?  Are they giving some strange name to
    something we already know and then jacking up the price?  If so,
    can I buy the RAM board unpopulated?  Also, what about the 2630
    and RAM.
  - Where can I get my 2000 at the lowest cost?
  - When is the 3000 gonna arrive?
  - Does anybody have a SCSI hard drive in the 100 to 300 meg range that
    they would like to sell?
  - Also, could those of you with Multi-scan monitors, please tell me
    what type you are using and what cabling you have.  I would like
    to get a multi-scan to support the new ECS.  What new resolutions
    will the ECS support?  What multi-scan monitors are supported by
    C=?
 
I realize that some of these questions are preferential, but that's ok.
I want people's opinions.
 
                                Thanks, Ralph Seguin
