>But I have no more room in my tiny but mighty A4000. What was C= >thinking when they put only 4 slots in here??? i dunno, my 3000 also has 4 slots but only has 2 ibm-at slots. the 3000 case is also smaller than the 4000, i guess pizza box cases were in style then. 🙂 i would like to get a bridgeboard, but i won't be able to make any real use of it until i can find a basic 3000T for a good price. i really wish the 3000 came in a "refined" 2000 case (mouse, joystick, keyboard ports on the right side, a tade slimmer). oh well. 🙂 could be worse, could be no slots. 🙂 bob – 1:226/600.3@fidonet.org – zooming by in his TIE Interceptor on AutoPilot

Bob, I was wondering if there is a company out there that manufactures tower cases for the A4000. I know other companies in the past have done this for the other Amiga models. My machine is totally stuffed! I want to add an Emplant, but I won't be able to until I get some sort of expansion box. Thanks, Mike Just Multitasking Operating Systems AmigaDos & OS/2.

As for expansion chassis, Ambitious Technologies (Gardena, CA; area code 310) makes one. Essentially you move all of your A4000 guts into this hugh tower chassis that has room for drives, power to run them, and slots for everything.
