- Ok, 28Mzh against 14 Mzh, that's not no 4x Faster, that's only 2x faster, Not
- noticalble. Then you have to consider the 16-bit A600 to the 32-bit A1200
- system. The A600 should just be tossed out! Why throw good money away just to
- add a 28Mzh 020 processor? That may make it 4x faster then a Stock A600 when you
- add the FastRam, but come on, my 030/50Mzh Card is TO SLOW in my A1200, but at
- least with the A1200 I can always go 060 and probley PowerPC, besides the fact
- of AGA over that ESC system.
-
- That's my .02 cents worth.
