Well, I finally ended up ordering a Micon Technologies 2 meg board and
their one slot chassis from a local dealer.
Does anyone out their know of any plans to market Zorro-2 boxes for the
Amiga 1000 (aside from Pacific Peripherals). And for how much? I don't
think that 2 slots and a power supply ought to cost $249. That's almost
the price of an XT clone without the hard drive and monitor. Gee, one
would think that connectors and a ps would run over $150 in cost.
Is this one way to encourage everyone to go with the 2000 and abandon the
1000? Hmm. Perhaps I ought to get a 2000 after all. I understand that in
a small market that the limited quantity of sales would tend to raise the
price of a product. I guess $250 or so will be the best we'll see for a
powered 2 slot Zorro-2 card for the Amiga 1000. Oh well.
BTW, when is the new file system supposed to be released?
