It is just a name.. Some people have reported that one of the prototype Amigas was called Zorro, but all the historics I've read only talk about the Lorraine.

Someone from the original Los Gatos team might know for sure.. Dave Haynie could be a good bet of the later Commodore team..

I seem to remember, that the Zorro-1 example expander was a Los Gatos design.


IIRC one of the early Amiga prototypes was called Zorro after the 70's TV series.

The name was later used to describe the Expansion port and it appears to have stuck :-)
