He was talking to some of your engineers who frequent CompuServe and they were telling him that if you get the ram that goes over the first 512K boundry, such as the Tecmar board, that the ram will actually run 2 times faster than that in the first 512K! From what I have understood, the machines first 512K was supposed to hold the fastest ram, which is true? What will be the advantages/disadvantages to getting the extra 512K? Also, could you confirm/deny the possiblity of substituting the 68000 contained within the machine with a 68010? Will this hurt or improve the machines speed, and is it possible? Once again, for those of us who have already bought Amiga's, could you state the company policy for hardware/software updates? Thanx in advance, -- Craig Norborg (aka Doc Pierce) Uucp: { decvax, icalqa, ihnp4, inuxc, sequent, uiucdcs }!pur-ee!pucc-i!aic { decwrl, hplabs, icase, psuvax1, siemens, ucbvax }!purdue!pucc-i!aic USnail: 910 N. 9th street Lafayette IN 47904
