- Mine are socketed. I've gotten replacements from MemoryWorld, I don't recall
- their number. You can probably find a supplier listed in any Amiga rag.

- Are all CIAs the same? A dealer once told me that A3000 cias differed from
- those used in 500s/2000s. A timing difference. In any case, when ordering
- them, I've always asked for CIAs for my A3000.
