Just saw an ad for one in the Amiga Ueser International. Any one have scoop on it???? > Yes there is, i've got one. It's not by commodore, its by a UK firm called checkmate. All it does is turn your amiga A500 into a PC lookalike, it put the keyboard in a new cover and puts all the electronics in a sturdy metal case for your monitor to stand on. You can then junk your old plastic A500 case. The good thing about this is that it allows you to fit an overider board, which has the capability to expand and A500 beyond a B2000. -- *********/// O O **A member of S.H.I.T.
