- Not true. I had a stock A1000 that supported EHB. On the other hand,
- I knew some people who had A1000's that didn't support EHB. As I recall,
- there was an article in one of the Amiga rags (AmigaWorld?) at the time that

- appeared just before the A2000's were released.)

- In any event, some OCS chips supported EHB and some didn't. I guess
- the best you can do is say you can't depend on OCS chips supporting EHB.
