I ran into the Cardco people at the AmigaWorld party, (at least it woke me up there). And I recieved a retailer's sheet of the meg board. Here are the features of the board. Pass-through Design – Allows connection of additional boards, card, boxes, Hard disks, etc. to the expansion port Full Auto Configuration – Test and operational with both Amiga's "AutoConfig" and "AddMem" memory enhancement software systems. Low-Power Operation – Extensive use of CMOS ICs permits operation without external power supply. In fact, two aMEGAS may be daisy-chained with exceeding the rated power available to the port. Well, those are the important features that I noted, the rest are rather obvious. They will start shipping this week, and I hope any of our users who purchase one or two will let us know his comments on the product. Bye Bye 512K! Jim
