I have two A-Max units — one on an A2000HD with an '030 accelerator and one on an plain old A500 with a 7.14 mhz 68000 and 4 megs of RAM. The latter A-Max runs surprisingly fast and is comparable to a plain old Mac Plus, only with a bigger screen. You can do nicely with A-Max even without an accelerator. Note that a meg of chip RAM is preferrable to 512K of chip, for improved compatibility reasons. Emplant seems to be getting closer to a debugged state. If it does, I predict lots of folks will be selling their A-Max units complete with ROMs to migrate over. Then there could be some good deals on the used market. I just bought the second A-Max used and complete with 128K ROMs for 100 bucks. They usually go more than that, however.
