They have offered an upgrade to AmaxIV (includes the card) for $350.00 US. They then will allow a $100 trade in allowance on your cartridge, so the actual cost is more like $250. You can use the ROMs from your cartridge. The II+/IV board does not seem to allow connection of a Mac floppy drive, but the IV software comes with an Amiga utility to copy a Mac low-density disk to a file on a Amiga partition of your hard disk. When you start AMax, you can mount that file as a sort of virtual disk, and copy the contents into the Mac-formatted partition. This actually works, I've even done it. The file copy from Amiga to Mac works VERY well, I've been downloading Mac files from the Mac forums here with Autopilot, and copying them over to the Mac. Soundmaster and lots of other utilities have arrived that way, and all work fine. I like it! // -Karl \X/ Amiga and Autopilot: The *only* way to fly!
