We are currently working on EGA/VGA and although there is no date set at the moment registered ATonce owners will be kept informed. Reinhardt

One suggestion for VGA, if you want the true colors, at a resonable speed maybe you should try Ham-E support (thats the board from Black Belt systems). BEN Leigh's Computer's

Reinhardt: I've got an A500 with 2 floppies, Xetec HD w/Quantum 40, and 3 megs of ram. Presently, due to splitting my load between the Amiga's power supply and the Xetec's, my Amiga power supply only gets luke warm. I don't have sensitive enough instruments to actually measure the current draw. How much additional load will the Atonce card actually put on the A500's power supply? Most of my upgrading has been done with the idea that I will upgrade my platform to the A2000 series or possibly A3000. I live in Alaska and I haven't been able to see the A3000 in action yet. What adapters are necessary to install the Atonce in these machines and what will the approximate cost be. Also what will be involved in upgrading to VGA video standards if and when they become available. Thanks. George
