So, when will the long awaited Workbench 2.0 be in full
distribution in ROM format? Much like 1.3 ROMS are available at your
nearest Amiga dealer for purchasing, when will 2.0 be in a similar
format? Will it be a ROM set AND new utilities on disk, or just new ROMS,
or neither, etc?

The 1.3 boot capability is provided by the MMU, which is included in 2500s and 3000s. -- Martin Hunt martin@cbmvax.commodore.com Commodore-Amiga Engineering {uunet|pyramid|rutgers}!cbmvax!martin
