Can an A500 be 100% converted yto A500+ ?
« on: November 24, 2008, 09:20:57 AM »
Hi,

I was wondering if I had (which I dont) an A500 could I convert it to become a 100% A500+?

I know about upgrading the ROM chip, but what about Chip Memory and Battery? Also are there any big differences in the motherboard between the two?

I am asking this just out of curiosity. From the research I did it seems that Commodore wanted to introduce the A500+ as an intermediary step before introducing the A1200 so that software development techniques could be improved. However was there more to this?

Thanks and Regards,

Ok I understand :) Thank you. It is nice to know that an A500 cab be upgraded up to an A500+. My cousin has an A500 (I have the A500+) and maybe he would be interested to upgrade it one day :)
