Hello, it's the guy with the "Fat Agnus" problem again.  Again, please reply
by mail, since I am NOT on this list.  My friend took his A500 apart, and
now I can tell you exactly what he has.  He has the 'regular' Fat Agnus
which is number 8370.  The board is Revision 5.

Various people replied and cleared up that there are actually 'Fatter' Agnuses
that are needed to get the full 1 meg of chip RAM (with his 512K expansion).
One person, however, wrote and explained a procedure to get 1 meg via a
switch on JP2.  Well, he said you needed Revision 6 of the board, which
my friend does not have.  Is there yet ANY way for him to get a full 1 meg
of chip RAM on his A500, or is he SOL?  BTW, he did find JP2, but I suspect
that it does not matter unless you have the right board? Reminder: please reply
via E-mail, and thanks for all the help so far...
