Can anybody who knows where a PP&S Mercury 040/35 Mhz accelerator for an Amiga 3000 could be purchased please let me know, I have a friend who is desparately trying to track one down. Does`nt matter which country U.K, U.S. He has been unable to track down any 3000 040 accelerator that is clocked over 28 Mhz. PP&S have told him they no longer support Amiga add-ons (is that correct?). Thanks for any help, and if anyone knows of any other manufacturer who has a 33 or 35 Mhz 040 for a 3000 please let me know, via E-Mail if poss. Paul Lakey (UK)

This seems to be a popular subject – I've called both GVP and PP&S and neither are making 3000 accelerators anymore. If you find anyone making a 3000 accelerator let me know! Rick – On Autopilot from Vancouver

Rick, Thanks, I will pass this message on to my friend, I feel he will be a little dismayed to say the least. I have only been out the Amiga scene for couple of months but things seem to be really changing. Paul

Paul – There are alot of changes in the Amiga scene. The Toaster 4000, the Amiga 4000 Tower coming soon, new Imagemaster, new Imagine, new Interchange, etc, all RSN. Should be an interesting time in the Amiga world. Rick – On Autopilot from Vancouver
