Re: Maximum RAM in an A500

I've got an A500+ in a Micronik Tower and I've been toying with an idea... The memory card from an Amiga 2000A has 512kB Ranger/slowmem and I have some extra chips to populate it fully to 1MB. I'll then put it into the CPU slot of the tower; then I wouldn't have to mess with the Gary. I found one off ebay for 1 euro, but unfortunately it didn't work (I tested it in my A2000 as well, to make sure). If I find another one I'll have:

2MB chipmem
8MB fastmem
1MB slowmem
512kB shadow RAM on my Blizzard Turbo board

That'd be one maxed out 68000 A500+! :-D It'd be cool to find one of those Supra 28MHz 68000 accelerators, since the Blizzard Turbo board only runs at 14MHz, but then I'd lose the 512kB shadow RAM... :-?
