I'm planning to get the A2000 educational discount setup, but I'm worried about the XT bridgeboard. I heard it is _really_ slow, or at least as slow as a 4.77mhz machine. Are there any speedup kits for this thing like there are for the IBM's? Such as a 10 mhz version of the 8088? Or is it impossible to speed it up? Also, is there any way at all to hook up a Starboard II to a A2000? It would be a cheap way to use some of my 1000 hardware, ie the hard drive controller.
