- Nonono... AMAX and AMAXII were cartriges that fit on the floppy port.
- You put the Apple ROMs in the Cartrige... and it also had a pass-through
- for Mac floppy drives.
-
- Amax II+ was the first zorro card... then there was Amax-IV (was there a III?)
- It added appletalk ports, and amax-iv added color and multitasking the Mac with
- the AmigaOS..
-
- I could be wrong, but most of this should be correct from my memory.. =)
