A friend of mine has an Amiga 500 (had it for a year).  Recently opened
it up and found that there is supposedly a "Fat Agnus" in the computer.
At least, that is what the circuit board says it is.  He has a Supra 501
clone memory expansion (512K), and a 2meg expansion in the SCSI interface
for his hard drive.

According to him, he only has 512K of "chip memory", and he wants to know
how to have access to one meg of chip memory.  Apparently, all of the memory
is "fast memory" only.  Finally, I guess his reasoning is that with the
"Fat Agnus", you are supposed to get one meg of "chip memory".  Me personally,
I don't know anything about any of this, but he seems to know what he is
talking about, yet is stumped.  Please, anyone who can, send whatever help
you can to this address:

Thank you in advance.
