I DO plan to try to load an occasional overscan image, but prob. no HAM and no
"large" pics. Have seen the printpouts, and am very impressed. Plan to check
out the Amigaarts Pen Pal CO Wed nite, for addn'l info. Say, I didn't know the
"Fat Angus" chip set was out yet, and thought it required Workbench 1.4 which
also isn't out, or am I all wet?

Nah, the Fat Agnus doesn't require the WB 1.4. It plugs right into the old
2000 and then whammo you have 1meg chip ram! (you do need to cut a trace or
two, I understand. I had my dealer install it for me, so I didn't worry about
it. (chicken)) Price? @ $130 for the chip, maybe 20-25 for installation.
I gather that WB 1.4 will make use of other big chip ram function (ie. larger
blitter, etc) but for now (w/1.3) it does a great job of just giving the 1meg
of chip ram. Caveat: there are a few programs that reportedly have a problem
with it, Pro Video being one. You might want to check out the August Amazing
Computing bug section (I think), which contains a list of programs that have
problems. I havent had a problem with any yet, and I use mostly graphic stuff.

OK, Thanks for the poop. -+WMS3+-
