Jerry, well, what else do you want to know? <Glenn

Glenn, How does it interface the PC data with the Amiga data. How "compatible" is it? How about speed? Was it hard to set up? Are you using a PC hard drive with a PC controller? How is that to set up? How is the Ram expansion? Can it be used for the PC half? etc…..etc… THANKS! Jer

Jerry, I can't really answer the questions about the PC side. I don't have the bridgecard. I do have the listing of the library calls available for interfacing the Amiga and PC sides. It should be available RSN (A2000) so it shouldn't be long before you can get answers to those questions. <Glenn

Glenn, Thanks…. I am just getting "ansty" I guess… along with a _few_ others. I hope it's as good a machine as it's suppose to be! Jer

Glenn, How's the video quality on your 2000? My RGB output is a bit fuzzy– has a slightly-out-of-focus appearance. The demo 2000 at my dealer has the same problem. Puzzling. David K.

David, I hadn't really noticed anything, but then I set mine up immediately in interlace with no contrasting colors. I did find someone else who had problems formatting a SCSI drive with the A2090 HD controller though. <Glenn

Glenn, Hmmm. I'm also using interlace, with a nice set of colors that do a great job of minimizing flicker. The display is definitely less sharp than my old A1000's. Also, I just connected the 2000's monochrome output to the video jack on my 1080 monitor. With the 1080's front three-way switch set to "Separate" (between Composite and RGB) I get a monochrome display just as sharp as the color display. No better, tho, unfortunately. David K.
