I am currently at University designing a piece of hardware for a university
project which uses an AT-compatible computer.  The hardware will use the AT slot
for talking to the card from a computer.  My question is... is the "AT slot" in
the Amiga 2000 the same as an IBM-compatible AT slot???  All I will be using
the slot for is the 8 address lines and the 8 data lines and maybe the power
lines.  I may also need to use an interrupt line of some sort.

If the slots are the same,  it will enable me to program an Amiga to perform
the required task and might place the Amigas in industrial applications.  I
would really like to see Amigas being used like this if possible.

I haven't made the final design layout yet, so I would appreciate it if I could
know in advance.

		Thanks in advance,

IBM???  Are they AMIGA-compatible???
