- I dont know. The fact is, EVERY SINGLE type of 030 accelerator, and also the
- Apollo 1220 are no-where to be seen. Dont ask me why/ Ive been trying to get an
- accelerator for 2 months now.

- Would be nice. But they lost my sale... And I am not prepared to spend 500
- pounds on an 060 when it may be possible to spend about that much for a PowerUp
- card in 6 months time. Still doesnt explain the fact that there are no other
- type of 030's accelerator around. Even Viper 28's are out.
