Chris – I have a 2000 with the bidgecard installed. I added some goodies on the PC side as I bring some work home from the office PC. The first board I added was a multifunction board with two serial ports, one parallel port, one game port, clock-calendar, and 256K extra memory. All worked well except that the second serial port is not recognized by the bridgecard, but at least I don't have to always type in the date & time. The second item I added was a HARD DISK. THe unit I used was a NEC 20MEG that can be used RLL for 30MEG with an ADAPTEC RLL control. I partitioned it with 10MEG for the PC and 20MEG for the AMIGA. So far no problems at all. From the AMIGA side it seems pretty fast, at least compared to floppies !!!! It was SO much cheaper to add the HD to the PC BUSS than the AMIGA that You can get alot more bang for your buck. If you have any questions please drop me a line. Regards – Peter Ganczarski
