I am posting this for a friend without net access.... In the Amiga B2000 (any revision i think) there are two 16 bit ibm slots and two 8 bit ibm slots after a bridgeboard has been installed. On the motherboard there are solder holes for (hopefully) converting the two 8 bit slots to 16 bit. Can two small card connectors be soldered to provide the two 8 bit slots with 16 bit compatibility ? please email replies to cpmwca@marlin.jcu.edu.au ************************************************************************ Colin Adams Life's funny but I don't laugh.... ************************************************************************

They are left out for the reason that there exist some 8-bit cards on the market that need the room those connectors occupy. (Second reason is cost, naturally.) -- Best regards, Dr. Peter Kittel // E-Mail to \\ Only my personal opinions... Commodore Frankfurt, Germany \X/ {uunet!pyramid!rutgers}!cbmvax!cbmger!peterk
