Anyone got an A500 which is dragging? Just need that extra bit of speed?

I did.  There wasn't anything like LUCAS for the A500 and speedup cards were
nearly non-existant for anything but Amiga 2000's out here in NZ. SO...


I bought myself a 2630 card and installed it on my A500.  It only requires one
hardware modification on the main board - the 7Meg signal has to come out to
the expansion socket.  By making a small board which contains two 86 pin
sockets I could plug the 2630 board in.

Heaps faster!! More memory!! Only problem is it sits out in the open ..
but I'm working on that.
