- All the ports from the a500 is there except the side edge slot for hard drives.
- and such. But there is a bottom slot for that now, instead of the 1/2meg job.
-
- But then there is more, there is the pcmcia type 2 slot, rf output( ie ch 3 tv)
- , and composite out.
-
- I am kinda interested in that pcmcia slot. I have seen an ethernet card for
- pc's at $390. And with amiga planning on having networking built into
- os 3.1 [ tcp/ip ], it could make for a nice terminal. Or if they make
- 040 for the bottom slot, it could make for nice little engines connected
- together for some serious rendering.
