How much were those cards back then?  I'm guessing a bit out of the typical consumer range...

Onlky thing I could find is this, which is actually a card released the following year, but 199

Its on the middle left side, under announcements.

Hammer is suffering from a lot of amiga guilt it seems. As I explained above, any amiga talk must be accompanied by immediate proof that the amiga sucked, even though today its 2011.

i don't have a problem with aga as such, more with ecs which on the a500+ was a completely useless chipset update for the a500. Wow 1280x256x4 colours at 4x slower speed, what a fantastic update for gamers!

Aga was necessary given vga being everywhere on pc games of all types not just american snooty £40 games, but we already had fatter agnus 1mb chip ram and that was all the ocs ever needed time wasted on.

Jay miner's ranger chipset was finished and should have gone in the a3000 regardless of cost.
