Gee Rich, you seem to have taken this out of  context. I said using several
products which pass the bus and do NOT SUPPLY THEIR OWN POWER will increase
the probability of you ``destroying your amiga.'' Passing the bus from card
cage (supplying its  own  power)  to card cage (supplying its own power), I
said, is simply unreliable (unless  hardware measures are taken to increase
reliability and even  then, the  number of times that the bus may be passed
should be kept to a minimum - 0 times is still quite definately preferred).



Glad I could set you straight on this point.
