        Mike,

                I don't know about you, but I've been hearing noises
             about a 1M chip ram up-grade for the A2000 (A500 ???) and
             this will not be retro-fitable to the A1000.  If this 
             does apply to the A500, how long do you think new software
             releases will be runnable on our A1000's?

                It makes me nervous.

                                                    Wade W. Bickel
