Hi folks,
I just cracked open an A500 I got a while ago and put aside, to see what I had. Turns out to be a Revision 5 with an 8370 Agnus, 16x256Kx1 chips onboard and a Supra 512K RAM/clock expansion in the trapdoor.
So, is it worth the hassle of putting an 8372A or 8375 in it? If that is, there's plenty of A500+ around that I might get for the $$$ of a fatter agnus. I would be limited to expanding chip RAM by the trapdoor wouldn't I? or is there ways and means of hacking another 512 piggybacked on to what's in there?
I'm not totally sure but I think my other A500 is a rev6 with the spare holes for another 512 onboard, and an 8372A already. (Think I've got some old boards somewhere I could steal 4x256 RAM chips from) That one is buried at the moment. Getting back "into" miggy stuff after a long break, time to dig it all out soon.
TIA for any wisdom.
