Troia) Newsgroups: comp.sys.amiga.misc Subject: Does anyone know if Imtronics still exists? Message-ID: <15764@life.ai.mit.edu> Date: 10 May 91 16:18:08 GMT Sender: news@ai.mit.edu Reply-To: p_troia@upr1.upr.clu.edu Distribution: na Organization: The Internet Lines: 25 I was looking at some mid-1990 Amiga magazines and saw some ads from a company called Imtronics advertizing an accelerator for the A500 called the Hurricane 500. I would be interested in buying this product for my Amiga, but I wasn't able to contact Imtronics at the phone number on the old ads... Are they still in business, and if not, is there any other company that still sells their products? Also, what are the current alternatives for accelerating the 500 for ~$500 or less? I've heard good things of the ICD AdSDSpeed, and have heard of the the Saphire from TTR, and the Midget Racer from CSA. I didn't list the Mega Midget Racer because its price is out of my budget, although I've heard it's an execellent product. I have no need for a FPU at this time, but it would be nice to have the option to do add one in the future. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Paolo V.
