I'm about to buy an A500... does anyone know of the existance of an
external expansion rack that fits on the external bus?
Yes, I know that the B1000 is a better bet for expansion, BUT finances
state that the A500 would be the one to go for now!
Thanks,
Nick Kings

Both Expansion Technologies and Pacific Peripherals sell one. PP's has a slot for a 3 1/2" drive, but raises the computer by 2 inches. ET's is cheaper, but has no space for a drive. ET and PP both advertise regularly in AmigaVoid and Amazing Science Fiction Computing. Does anybody know of another one? It shouldn't be that difficult... looks like ET's is just a board mounted in a 5 1/4" external floppy case (suitably hacked). For that matter, someone mentioned a $100 RAM card kit (blank) from some company... what company, and WHAT IS THEIR PHONE # OR ADDRESS? (infuriates me when someone says "Oh, it's at Ravon's" but doesn't say what a Ravon is). -- | // Eric Lee Green P.O.
