This is my first posting, I hope it finds its way. I would like to direct a question to the CBM people if I may. I have upgraded to the 2000 (which I love), and was waiting for the hard disk drive issue to become clear before ordering a system. I had decided to order an A2090, but in the January AmigaWorld (page 11), it states that the A2090 does not work while the Amiga is in overscan mode. This would be devastating to me as the project I am working on requires overscan (and a hard disk). Is this true? If so, will it be fixed? Maybe someone from ASDG (Perry Kivolowitz ?) could help, as it is claimed that their SDP controller does not have this problem. Thanks for the help.

Anyone care to estimate the chances of a retraction appearing?? This is just about as bad as finding out from them that there was to be no A1000==A2000 tradeup program the day after I traded up!!!!! *** flame mode off **
