_In Message-ID: <1314@teroach.UUCP> Stan Fisher:_
_> I've seen the Lucas board [nexpensive 020 upgrade], a nicely done PCB with_
_> 4 pals for $65, you build. You add the glue chips, processors and sockets/_
_> connectors, etc.) Now I might believe there's enough hardware to cost $300_
_> sans chips and still leave a handsome profit margin but wow!_
_That sounds pretty promising to me (I have an A1000), I'de like to get_
_some more info from anyone who has information about this board,_
_speciffically: how much of a speedup does it give? Any compatibility_
_problems (above an beyond another 68020)? Is there support_
_for 68881, and/or a MMU? What is the total cost of the kit and_
_what does and DOESN'T it include. Plus, if there is anyone out there_
_who has constructed/used this board any comments on difficulty in_
_construction and reliability? I want to get an accelerator for my Amiga_
_(I wnat MORE SPEED!!!!), but I can't really afford $600, I'de like to go_
_with a '20, (the other option is CMI's PA) if I could get the board at a_
_reasonable cost (I already have a 68881 {stuck in starboard MFM}, so_
_if I could get the board built for $300, I could spare another $200 for a_
_16Mhz 68020....). And finally How do you get one of these kits?_

I don't know that there is a good way to send the Lucas project docs over the net. I downloaded the thing from BUX-- over 300K arced!! I expect it will come out on a fish disk or some such. How about someone putting it up on an anonymous UUCP site? I'd do it here, but right now my machine is sharing a phone line with the family. -- -------------------------------------------------------------------------- What the eye beholds CI$: 72406.1363 And the heart covets PLINK: Brianop Let the hand boldly sieze!
