In relation to this discussion (I won't quote as I am not responding IN
SPECIFIC to anyone) that is on the sources base...

I have a A1000 (one of the first 10 sold in NJ BTW - I worked at the store)
with 2.5 MEG of RAM , a hard drive, a 10 meg removable storage unit, 2
floppies, Genloc, Frame Grabber and audio digitizer.

Note that there are 2 devices on the bus, and when I have my other 1 MEG
expansion it was 3 .. all with pass thru. I NEVER had a problem with that
bus.

Some folks I know that DID have a problem solved it with a simple grounding
mod.

It is NOT C='s fault that some stupid developer could read a spec sheet for
his life and built it wrong.

The problem is that most PC owners will "accept" that "it isn't compatible
with your machine" stuff .. so the developers are used to getting away with
it.

I can run ALL the software that is available today (with the exception of
020/030 only programs) and have YET to see a reason to buy a 2000/2500. I
WILL get a 3000 though ;=). 

My A1000 has done EVERYTHING I have asked, and pays my rent.

What more does anyone want ?
