[comp.sys.amiga] 2090 & 2090A

cb1p+@andrew.cmu.edu (Chris Beasley) (11/22/88)

I just ordered 1.3 with rom's in preparation for adding a bootable
hard drive to my 500.  I am planning to get a pacific peripherals
subssytem and a 2090A but I have a few questions.  The first is
the difference between the 2090 and the 2090A.  I know one is
autobootable and the other is not.  The other difference seems to
be that the 2090A is not available anywhere.  Is this the case?
Also, can I buy a 2090 and upgrade it with new roms to a 2090A?
When is the 2090A going to be available?  The other questions I have
regard the subsystem 500.  Is this a good box?  Do you have one?
I heard a rumor that one with three slots was going to be coming out.
What other options are available in the same price range to add a few
slots to my 500?  Any info would be appreciated.  Please respond to
cb1p@andrew.cmu.edu and I'll summarize to the net.
