[comp.sys.amiga.misc] Video Slot

bryanh@amix.commodore.com (Bryan Harpel) (03/01/91)

   This is a really dumb question considering that I have owned an Amiga 
for over 3 years, but, where is the video slot??  I have looked through 
the entire manual and it doesn't show you.  I always thought it was the 
slot wayyy on the right, but I bought a GVP accel and found out that that 
is the coprocessor slot!  Buying a card that requires this slot and then 
finding out that I have filled it would really suck, so can someone 
enlighten me on this small problem? :)

The video slot is ALL the way to the right --- beyond the
power supply and drive bays.  It's as far to the right as
you can get.  (Obvious political jokes omitted :-)

Before we start let me assume that we're both talking about an A2000. If
that is the case then the video slot is the one on the far right, and
the co-processor slot is the fist slot to the left of the supply,
immediately to the right of the expansion slots. Yes I'm sure :3) !
