TANGENT APPROACHING! ***] (*** BY the way.. have you checked MacGeek (The Macintosh Weekly Magazine) :-) lately.. People sell 50Mhz MacIIFX repackages with 128MBytes of RAM (using 16 MB simms.) Show me an Amiga that can currently be expanded to 128Megs of RAM. X-Pert computer services in Germany sells the MEM64 card, which is a 64 Mb nibble-mode ram expansion card for the A3000. You want 128Mb? Plug in two cards. Need more? Fill all your expansion slots. Get an A3000Tower and fill *its* slots and you're all set... The standard configuration is 8Mb, expandable to 64Mb. The same company also have the Visiona graphics card, a 24 bit thing they call "highresolution art-card" as well as the Timehopper external cache board for A3000 (goes into the cpu slot) providing from 32Kb to 128Kb cache-ram. On the time-hopper you can also plug in a 60Mhz 68882, so your math/raytracing/radiosity stuff should run reasonably fast. / Andy Patrizio | Bitnet: pyc136@uriacc.bitnet \ Enjoy, -- Leonard
