- I will agree - the A500+ uses the same ECS-chipset as A600, but the 500 is much
- easier to upgrage and manipulate. All important circuits (CPU, AGNUS and so on)
- are placed in sockets, all inside is large and all components hole-mounted (the
- 600 uses surface mounted, much harder to repair. Try to change the 8520's in the
- A600 and you will see...). And forget accelerators in the A600.
-
- And about the OS - the ROM-chip is easy changeable in the A500+ and it is room
- enough to use a kick-swith if different versions is wanted (or needed).
