I've seen stuff about 1.8 and 2 meg expanders that fit in the Amiga 500's
A-501 slot.  Obviously, you'll need some connection to the motherboard (I'd
guess the Gary, since it's close) for the extra address lines.  However, I've
been asking hither and yon whether these cards are autoconfig; CAN they be,
is it possible to do this sort of a hack and still be autoconfig, and if so
do you know for sure which boards do this?  I only have 3 megs on my 500...
4.5 would be nice(r)... 
 
Thanks for your time and thanks for the Amiga!
