With regard to a slew of ads in the December 1990 AmigaWorld, did anyone
see the ad by California Access?  They advertised on three seperate pages
for their Bodega Bay.  Is it true what they claim? Essentially they say:
it takes a A500 and provides it with 200W and 7 slots(?) which can be 
made IBM compatible and video board compatible.  This means for $349
(Montgomery Grant) I can make my A500 into a A2000 without any problems.
Why should then people buy an A2000 when they can get a A500 and Bodega
Bay and still be financially better off?  Or is there a catch?  Such as
like it would not be possible to fit in the GVP 3001 MC68030 board because
the slowdown would be substancial or would it?  With the GVP 3001 the board
would take over and it has it own ram and I would have the hard drive in the
Bodega Bay and maybe a C= ethernet card and everything that used speed would
be there and the nonfunction chips such as MC68000 would be in the A500.

			Anyways I shall stop my mindless drivel!

				Please no flames about Montgomery
				Grant: I know they are evil but I
				just used them to quote prices!

				Any Info Would be helpful!
