However, we did nothing with the old XT's and I was told I could have the parts for free. I was wondering what I could strip from them to put into my Amiga 500. Can I take out the RAM chips and plug them into some 0K board? Is the power supply/fan usable as a replacement? Could I even custom make my own bridgeboard????? (wow!) Although the last is not likely, I would greatly appreciate any info/advice/hints on how I could divy up those parts, since poor college students like myself can not afford all of those neat hardware gadgets. Thanks in advance! /// /// Charles Callaway /// President \\\/// University Amiga Computer Society \XX/ ***>My Latin class loves to hear about the big sheep inside my computer!<***
