In response to your question about expansion hardware for the A500,
I have attached to my A1000 a prototype version of the Bills' Boards
Bus Expander, it has six Amiga slots, six IBM slots, currently running
a A2088 with 40MB of hard disk (20 for Amy and 20 for the IBM side)
the developers are using it with an A500 to run their CAD programs
in an Messy-Dos window.  This board was shown at the Commodore Show
in Anaheim, and I understand it was reviewed in Info, and LAAUG's
newsletter, Scanlines.  The board is finally about ready to go into
production. There was an extended delay while waiting for a Bridgeboard,
but testing is almost complete.
