Looks like a Bodega Bay expansion for A500 ?

I do not think so.  Even before looking at the pictures of the Zorro board on BBoAH I recalled a much different configuration than his picture.

My first thought was it is some kind of daughter board until he posted the brand.  Interesting, though.

Sometimes I wish I had played with my Bodega Bay more before it wound up in the dump.

And I would be careful about just plugging things into the expansion slot of the 500 (or any computer, for that matter) all willy-nilly.  Good way to release the magic blue smoke.  That has to stay inside the chips for them to work.

I inserted 2 GVP 2000 HC+8 boards with a working scsi hd on them, the card started spinning when I turned on the A500 so it did get power from the busboard ...


The card started spinning???  You had better call an exorcist, then! :laughing:
