- The tower I'm having is Micronik A500 version. The A500 I have is upgraded
- with a VXL 030 acceleratorcard with 2MB of memory (32bit). I also have a
- M-TEC AT500 IDE harddrive controller with 4MB fastram (16bit).
- The A500 is hacked to 1MB chip. (I want 2MB chip, but doesn't know how to
- do that.)
-
- What I was wondering was if there's any point in upgrading my A500T any
- further or if I should go for a A3000(T), A1200(T) or the Walker(?).
-
- The A500T I have starts to feel a bit slow so I want more speed. And
- also the posibility of expansions that acctually works. (The Micronik
- A500 tower isn't that good in compatibility with Zorro II.)
-
- If you have detailed descriptions of the A1200 Eagle tower I'd like to
- have a copy if that's OK with you. =)
