Apollo 630 which I believe are being rereleased again (they are not to good...2 died on me)


Where did you hear that?

So basicly you are saying that the only accelerator for A600 (more or less) aren't that good? I'd better get me one of those!

unless you install the MegaChip which is quite expensive.


And the Apollo 630 isn't?

-EDIT-

Btw. I agree with drwho.


Yes, but on A500 you'd need extra memory, and installing WB2.0, (cause the games that didn't play on 500 and needed 2mb ram, also needed - OS2.0). In A600 you get os2.0 and you're continuing only to the mb expansion. With A500 however, as I've written, the case wasn't that simple).

I'd go so far to say that in computer world the 600 is as the Alfa 156 in cars. CHEAP! ROUND WORTH(ness)! and a blaster. By the experience most certainly. It's only that it was bit sluggish back then, but hey, there's always that 'back then' to write and write about instead of skipping it.
