- Recently I saw in the German Amiga magazin an add from WAW Elektronik
- where they advertised a chipram expander for the a500/a2000 that also
- had an extra 2 MB on board with which you can get a total of 10 MB Fastram.
-
- I have no plans at all of buying it, but I am interested in how they might
- have done it. If I read the hardware manual(1.3) I have at home correctly
- the memory map of the a500/a2000 allows for 8 MB fastram, 2 MB chipram and
- the rest is reserved for chip registers and so on. Where might they have put
- the extra 2 MB fastram?
-
- I know this is possible with a bigger processor, but if I read the add
- correctly they intend it for the standard a500/a2000 with a 68000 processor.
-
- Just curious,
