1038.0. "Info magazine #18 news" by BAGELS::BRANNON (Dave Brannon) Tue Jan 05 1988 18:13
INFO magazine, #18 Jan/Feb 1988 mentions a few interesting things
in its report on three computer shows:
from the Commodore Show report:
o a company called BareBoards has bare memory boards for the A1000
(soon for A500 & A200).
$79.95 for a bare 4 Meg board
$133 for it with support chips but no RAM
populated boards available in 512K increments
$296 for board populated with 2 Meg RAM
o a company called Bill's Boards has an A2000-style expansion board,
for the A500 with up to 6 Amiga slots, 3 optional bridge slots,
and up to 6 IBM AT compatible slots for $495.95. The board is
designed to fit in a user-supplied baby-AT box & power supply
(less than $125)
o HyperTek will have a new flicker-free hires monochrome monitor
for $179. Hooks to the RGB port and has an RGB pass-thru for
your color monitor.
from the Comdex report:
o Progressive Peripherals & Software demoed some nice new Amiga
products. The EXP-8000+ gives your A500 up to 8 Megabytes
of RAM internally. It uses a new patented low-power design.
No price mentioned.

| The Rumors column also mentioned that CBM was close to releasing
a new DENISE chip that would provide 640 x 400 non-interlaced video
for all Amiga models. I wish...
