A500/2000 accelerator cards: still unfeasible to create new ones?

No.

Sorry for butting in and respect to all involved, but I just don't buy how the A600 has any points in favor of the A500 in this particular question.

A600 still has a PCMCIA slot, try adding a network card to your A500.

A500s are rare enough, A2000/3000 a problem to find let alone expansion cards.

"A500" and "rare" in the same sentence? Now that's funny.

There are plenty of 500s on eBay in the UK today, a couple of 500+ even.

Anyway, by this time most people that want a 500 have one (or ten,) and the low value of the item is a good reason not to bother listing on eBay.

I've got so many I've started cutting them up for parts!
