[comp.sys.amiga.hardware] Current B2000 Rev #

clemon@lemsys.UUCP (Craig Lemon) (11/11/90)

	With all the talk about revision numbers and new hardware lately,
I was curious what the newest B2000 REV is right now.  I have a REV4.2 and
I'm always concerned as to whether things are going to work or not.  Does
anyone have a REV4.2 that is running a 2630?  A3001?  A3050?  How do they
work?

I have a 4.2 (with Cherry keyboard!) and a A2630 installed - no CPU related
problems so far.

The machine, as always, never quite recovers from guru's (have to reset to
get the guru to appear - SetAlert, SetPatch, etc. never did fix this.)
(only have 1.2 KS installed)

Also, the clock seems to randomly jump around occasionally when in '030 mode.
Hopefully just a problem with the 8520's and not a 4.2 / A2630 incompatability.
