It may be great for a 500 - but I wouldn't bother on a 2000 - A friend of mine bought the internal 2000 version, and it has some MAJOR shortcomings. The board is a nice surface mount job, but: It wouldn't boot with expansion memory (!!!!), or at least not the Microbotics 8-up card, (I tried it in my machine with the same result, so it isn't a motherboard related thing, since mine's a different version). And apparently it doesn't do some of the things it's supposed to. If you're really into assembler it may be worthwhile if you can live without the memory, but I'll stick to 'CPR' and 'C' myself :-) -- +-----------------------------------------------------------------+ | | Jerry Cullingford #include +44 442 230000 | ,-|-- | jc@crosfield.co.uk (was jc@cel.co.uk) or jc@cel.uucp x3203 | \_|__ +-----------------------------------------------------------------+ \___/
