Re: A500/GVP HD8+ issues.

Had an A530T in the day (1993!) and recently got back into the A500 and a new/old HD8+ with all the associated frustrations.
In 1993 it seemed so much easier, but tbh the cpu accelerators I've tried all don't work with it.
The PiStorm kind of sort of does - but it's not a true amiga accelerator.
TF534 - nope
TF536 - nope
Cheap Polish 68K@36 MHz - nope

And I'm not going to pay over $500 for an old VXL or similar accelerator on ebay.
Frustrating as the SCSI2HD works great now in the HD8, but an unaccelerated A500 is painful.
Anyone have a modern cpu accelerator (in stock!) that works with it?
(what 'hack' were you referring to for 16bit/32bit memory ?)
