- Commodore did not void the warrantee on the 2000, originally. When I first
- bought my A2000, the first thing I did was install an extra memory card.
-
- My Co-op Job involved doing minor upgrades such as installing Hard Drives, and
- memory cards, and other peripherals to computers the company owned. It is
- silly of C= to assume no Amiga Owner can install a memory card, or other option.
-
- I would like my dealer to install options, I am not comfortable doing myself,
- but If my dealer will not recognize my warrantee because I installed a C=
- display enhancer, he sold me, in my 2000, which he sold me. Then he will
- install it himself at no charge to me. (It already means I have to take the
- machine down there).
