The posting of this information The hardware specs are by no means "hush hush" information. They do, however, consume MANY pages of text, and are of little use to the home hobbiest. The expansion architecture is a complicated, well thought out specification. It would be difficult at best to produce a product that meets the spec without the availability of a PROM programmer. If all you are after is the spec for the 100 pin connector, that would be easy. If you want the whole ball of wax, you should contact C/A directly. C/A was very helpful to my company, answered all our questions (time and again) and gave prompt, updated information. We were unknown to C/A and could have been just hackers, but they helped us anyway. If you are serious about getting the specification I suggest you call up Los Gatos and ask them for it. You can, in fact, call West Chester but they will tell you to call Los Gatos anyway. Commodore-Amiga Los Gatos, CA (408) 395-6616 Good Luck!!! -- Rich Rodgers tektronix!pogo!richr
