[comp.sys.atari.st] Atari 2Mb expansion kit

mfolivo@sactoh0.UUCP (Mark F. Newton) (12/15/89)

About a year and a half ago, I worked at a sacramento, CA Atari
dealer (since gone under) and I remember this interesting kit we
had, but never sold.

It was a 2Mb expansion kit, by Atari, that apparently plugged into
the expansion slot, and makes your Mega 2 into a Mega 4. I asked
once, if this 2Mb board could be plugged into a Mega 4 to make it a
Mega 6, but due to the OS, it was a no go.


Can anyone at Atari confirm if this kit is still available? The
computer store where I worked was an authorized Atari Business
Computer dealer, and we sold the entire line of STs, from 520 STs
to Mega 4s, and printers from the SMM804 to the SLM804.

Mata ne da-cha...

Sorry.. There was never such a kit from Atari Corp. Maybe you are thinking
of some Third Party memory expansion.
