- I have decided to upgrade my Amiga 2000HD and need to know what I need.
- I have been thinking about getting a Multistart II because I have alot
- of old stuff that I would still like to be able to use. But it looks
- like there is an old version and a rev 6a. What is the difference?
- I have a fairly old 2000HD, but I know that it will do Half Bright because
- of the Deluxe Paint demo program. But it sound like there are some new
- chips out and several versions of Amiga DOS. I have seen adds for
- 2.0 ROMS & 2.04 ROMS and DOS 2.0 and 2.1 and 3.0. I assume that I want
- 2.04 ROMS and DOS 2.1 and that 3.0 is for the 4000 and 1200. What about
- chips is there any that I really need and what about nice things to have?
- I would like to have a 68881 but I have to have a place to put it don't I.
- Is it worth the trouble? I don't have alot of money to spend so
- price/performance is important. I mostly use the machine for DTP Page Stream
- 2.2, but would like to run some of the new things that require 2.0
- Thanks for any help! Please send me mail if you can. I assume this is old
- stuff so I don't know how much interest there is in this.
- Thanks again!
- Jerry
