- 4x faster? I don't think so! They both would have 020 processors, but the A600
- is just a 16-bit system, the A1200 is a 32-bit system. If your talking about
- also adding Fast Ram to that A620 board, well hell then you better add Ram to
- that A1200 to be fair, which will make the A1200 Faster still. The A600 was a
- Usless AMIGA! One of many commodore Stuppied Idea's. Add the A600 to the list
- with C-16 and plus-4, probley the C-128D also. Hell a CD32 is much more Useful
- then the A600 ever was. The time they wasted developing these Lame systems
- could have been better spent, Oh I don't know, maybe getting the AAA chipset out
- the door?
