A2000 & A500 w/501 yea thats where I heard this before. $C00000 memory is checked for by the 1.2 operating system. This gives the feel of auto config memory. But anyway - I have used an Insider for over 1 year now (w/68010) and have had no problems or complaints. -- Dan Schein uucp: {ihnp4|allegra|burdvax|rutgers}!cbmvax!schein Commodore AMIGA Bix: dschein Plink: Dan*CATS 1200 Wilson Drive phone: (215) 431-9100 ext. 9542 West Chester PA 19380 +----------------------------------------------------------------------------+ All spelling mistakes are a result of my efforts to avoid education :-) +----------------------------------------------------------------------------+ I help Commodore by supporting the AMIGA.
