Brian, You write: >they were cheaper? Yes, but if someone was going to shell out close to 1000 bucks (which is what they seemed to have cost back then), it didn't make sense to me to pay a little less and wind up without an MMU. And then later on, these people would find out they couldn't run Emplant, Gigamem, or like product with the Amiga OS. For example, I think that GVP had an EC30 offering which really wasn't very cheap. Now if the EC accelerators were markedly cheaper (say around 1/5 to 1/2 the cost), it would make sense, IMHO. Take care, John G. Ata Sterling, VA
