I think Commodore used to sell 3000UX packages with a 2065 and 2410 graphics board. I see you've already got a 2065 on the way, but if you could get a 2410, you'd probably have a killer AMIX rig. I've never seen one for sale, though. Ever. :-(


Yes.  I don't expect of find one of those, although I am looking for one.  Probably what I will do is just redirect the Amiga's display to another X server on the network, so that I am not stuck with 1-bit(!) color.  But I can't do that until I get the ethernet card :-/


Actually, there are AMIX drivers for third-party cards, too, thanks to some nice people at Villagetronic. For ethernet, there is an Ariadne driver, and there is at least an X server for Picasso, possibly other cards, too. So if a better X is all you want, and won't mind settling for third-party, that's the way to go. Have a look at the original Gateway UNIX CD.
