A2000 CPU slot for A500?
« on: January 06, 2008, 11:05:54 AM »
Not a Zorro slot, but CPU slot. Is there any hardware out there to do this? Even a hack/selfmade project?

If not, for the hardware techies...would this be electrically possible to do?...

Great hack! I'm thinking of single CPU slot, designed well enough to mount a card lying down inside a standard A500. A quick measure up of parts I have here suggest it'll fit ok. It may even be possible to adapt a small zorro II card as well as a CPU card...

Anyone have an idea where to get the card connector strips from? I have done a quick search on the Dick Smith and Jaycar sites here in Australia with no luck...
