- Is it possible to have 2 scsi controllers in an Amiga? I intend
- to get a GVP G-force '040 card for my Amiga when they become
- available [is Motorola shipping '050s yet? ;-{)] and just bought
- a series II hard card with 4 meg around Christmas. It seemed
- like I might as well use the series II card to give me 12 (?)
- scsi devices if I could, unless GVP has a trade in policy for
- going from the memory/scsi/harddisk card to a G-Force card.
-
- BTW. I believe I can get 16 meg on the accelerator card. Is
- there any device, program, etc. out there which would benefit
- from more memory than this?
-
- Has GVP shipped that 24 bit color card which "plugs into" the
- accelerator cards yet? If so, is there anyway out there who has
- seen/used one? Will it work with the Toaster?
