The big reason I want more than the 512K trap door mem (which it already has) is that I did the 2meg mod to the MB and I run the A500 frequently w/o the A590 which leaves me with no fast mem. I play a lot of games off floppies on the A500 for quick miggy satisfaction! 
The A590 is a pain to get all connected as I have no place to leave the A500 all hooked up (have to put it away each time I use it). That Kipper board looks like the ticket but then, you know me, I'll have to go all hog wild with a CF adapter and Kipper CPU relocation thingy and all that jazz! Rather just get a 4MB trap door expansion. :laugh1: I was all giddy when I say the mem expansion from Softhut and was willing to do what ever it took to snipe that from any other bidders.:roflmao:
Hummm... have you done
the power mod to have the A590 draw directly from the A500? That's what I did with my GVP and it works great. Would save you from having to run one extra wire, anyway.
You kids and your floppies! :lol:
Yes, the fun moment of waiting until there's 15 seconds left on an auction then throwing in a bid... Sometimes ebay brings out the worst in us, I think.
Might have to start shopping around for another Spectrum card, if I was going to take you up on that swap. But I'm still holding out on those 97 resistors! Somewhere, somebody must have a card that they'll sell, LOL.
