Chris, Commodore may or may not have made a few A500's with 1 Meg on the motherboard….I've never seen one, but I haven't really been looking for one either. However, from Commodore's official publication (and also as reported by Dave Minnich here)…the A500p and the A500c are the exact same hardware, the difference is what comes bundled with it. The A500p comes bundled with the A501 512k RAM expansion board. The A500c doesn't. There are differences in the software bundled also. BTW, on those machines you say exist with 1 Meg on the motherboard, where is the battery backed clock/calendar…on the motherboard also? Don
