I would buy a 2000-n-1 if it had ONLY the Z-2 slots since I don't have any slot expansions for my A1000. How about it, any other takers for a cheaper 2000-n-1 box (without Z-1 slots)? -- ________________________________________ This space would have been | Mike Davis LEFT INTENTIONALLY BLANK | ihnp4!ihlpm!jmdavis had I not written in it. |_________________________

If you've invested in expansion hardware as I have (i.e. ASDG stuff), then having Zorro I compatibility means that you won't have to sell off the hardware in the ASDG cage. It also means that you'll be able to take advantage of ASDG's SDP disk controller right away, since ASDG claims that it will available in Zorro I format first. If you're looking for just Zorro-II slots, I believe CSA makes a goodie called the HighRise that has 2000, as well as PC slots (I think). They also have the magic slot to plug their 14 MHz '020 card in. I'm told this isn't cheap, though.... _-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_ Leo L.
