A500 clockport-adaptor for the 68k-slot
« on: May 25, 2005, 01:08:35 AM »
I have read a few posts about clockport adapters for the Amiga 500 such as the adapter for the 68k slot. I am interested in more info on these adapters or any clock port devices that will work directly with the A500. I also read reference to individual computers, but don't see such a device on their web site nor on any manufactures site for that mater. Were are these mysterious devices? Finally what device that have drivers will work with them? Oh, what the heck is a clock port anyway? I asume it’s an connection built into 1200 series Amiga.
TIA
 :-)

Yes Argus, it is an A530turbo GVP impact series II
CPU is 40 MHZ Motorola 68ec030. It was the 40 MHZ that had me thinking of 68040

Thanks, Argus  :-)
Wasn't the 500 the best selling Amiga model?
Seems like hardware venders would want to produce more stuff for it.
