I am planning to get a pacific peripherals subssytem and a 2090A but I have a few questions. The first is the difference between the 2090 and the 2090A. I know one is autobootable and the other is not. The other difference seems to be that the 2090A is not available anywhere. Is this the case? Also, can I buy a 2090 and upgrade it with new roms to a 2090A? When is the 2090A going to be available? The other questions I have regard the subsystem 500. Is this a good box? Do you have one? I heard a rumor that one with three slots was going to be coming out. What other options are available in the same price range to add a few slots to my 500? Any info would be appreciated. Please respond to cb1p@andrew.cmu.edu and I'll summarize to the net. Chris
