Just today a FEDEX'd an order for the GVP3001. I am getting the 68882 and an 80 Meg Quantum HD. I cannot afford the memory yet though (I plan to purchase it within the next six month though, when I am expecting a bonus check). The reason I choose GVP was I needed the Hard Disk. It seemed the best buy that way and some reviewers give it the best performance ratings (for both the accelerator and the drive, although top notch performance of the drive depends on having the 32 bit memory). The fact that it is difficult to go to 68000 mode does not bother me too much. I don't really run that many games, which are the primary reasons you might want to go to 68000 mode. If I do need to go to 68000 mode though, I can just use my Amiga 500 that I have hooked up to my Sony KV25XBR TV/RGB Monitor (WOW!! What a picture!!!) I am a bit disturbed by the problems people are having with the bridge board and the GVP. I don't own a BB at this time, but it is in my future plans. Anyway, the die is cast. Now I just must deal with the anxiety of WAITING for my new baby. 8^)…… Mike
