I know for certain that a GVP A500+ works on the A1000 with 8MB of RAM.  I think I even have a picture of it floating around somewhere.

My 1000 had the DKB Kwikstart installed, which included grounding all the PALs. I ran a separate ground wire out into the expansion box. The Box itself was unpowered, but I did install a power supply for the hard drive. This kludgeomatic worked reliably for years.


I don't want to hijack this thread, but I want to reference this post, so quick question: I have the Kwickstart 2 installed in my 1000 and I want to install the FastPALs upgrade.  One of the Kwickstart PALs is in the same location as one of the FastPALs is to go.  Are these two expansions compatible?  (I'm trying to put my 1000 back together to test the Starboard I am selling.)
