- I have been lucky(??) enuff to obtain thru my work an oldish PC 486DX..
- The main thing tho..is that it has a 1.2 Gigabyte hard disk in it!!.
- Now..is there a way I can plug my amiga into the pc and use the HD
- on the amiga?..or do I have to remove the PC hard disk..and will it
- be compatible?..I have no idea how to go about this..and ideally I
- would like to keep the PC HD intact.. So..can I somehow access the
- PC hard disk from my amiga?..any ideas on this would be most appriciated.
- Thanks In advance.
- Mike Warren.
- p.s. I have an old A500 WB 1.3 1 MB of memory..(hey..is there a way
- I can get the amiga to access my 15MB of PC memory???) and NO hard disk.
- (1 int and 1 ext floppy).
