Bill: I just took the cover off of my A3000, and I may have some more news for you. The system has 2Meg Chip ram, and 4 Meg Fast Ram. Fast Ram is 1 x 4 Page mode. Also: I do not have Kickstart in ROM (ROM 0 and ROM 1 are missing). I have known this since I got the machine; I have been waiting for the updates to the OS to happen (2.1, and now 3.0). I noticed, however, that there are no sockets for the ROM chips; they are surface mounted. This means <gulp> that they are not user-installable, and have to be done by a service center, correct? Thanks for your help…. talk to you soon! Merry Christmas! — Dave
