Does any company still make 68020 boards for the 2000? The last one seemed to me the 2620, but that's gone now also. It may be all right to say that 68030 boards are cheaper now, but the fact a Ferrari is $10000 lower doesn't mean I can afford one! So could anybody tell me about any company who still make 68020 boards. Also could somebody mention if these boards have the option for 32-bit ram, and their clock speeds (assuming that they do exist).

The 2630 board hasn't shown up here I don't think. At least if you ask about a 68030 board the dealers all say one of 3 things. 1. A Who? or 2. No the AMiga only uses a 68000 and can't use anything else. or most infrequently 3. No sorry they haven't got them here yet, don't know when > Thanks in advance, > Ian > > Ian Rowlands | ianr@mullian.ee.mu.oz.au (main) > Dept. of Electrical Engineering, | ianr@gondwana.ecr.mu.oz.au > (including Computer Science) | U431EL122@xvax.ucs.unimelb.edu.au > University of Melbourne | munnari!labtam!eyrie!gpark!ianr@uunet.uu.net -- ============================================================================== | Hamish Marson | Internet hamish@waikato.ac.nz | | Computer Support Person | Phone (071)562889 xt 8181 | | Computer Science Department | Amiga 3000 for ME! | | University of Waikato | | ============================================================================== |Disclaimer: Anything said in this message is the personal opinion of the | | finger hitting the keyboard & doesn't represent my employers | | opinion in any way.
