THINKING OF BUYING AN AMIGA -- A600 -- The new HOME COMPUTER, recently cut in price to appeal to the game console crazy public. Originally to be called the A300, it was finally released earlier this year 1992, a few months after the A500plus. Opion was devided at the launch - some of us liked it, some of us hated it. At the present time expansion capabilities are severly limited because this machine lacks the 86-pin edge connector. PRICE : 299.00, with hard drive it`s 499.00 KICKSTART : 2 WORKBENCH : 2 PROCESSOR : 68000 STANDARD MEMORY : 1MB MAXIMUM CHIP MEMORY : 2MB MAXIMUM FAST MEMORY : 8MB MAXIMUM TOTAL MEMORY : 10MB CHIP SET : Enhanced chip set ==> Expasion capabilities: Rom switches will work. Extra 1MB chip memory may be inserted into the A500 incompatible trapdoor. Adding ram anyway this way will be slightly more expensive, as special "flash-ram" will be required. The PCMIA slot should allow some IBM type PC periphearls to be attached. NOTE : No monochrome video output, built in RF modulator for direct connection to tv set. HARD-DRIVE : Yes- internally fitted as option. ( according to green beret one of his contacts had one of these internal hard drives. He was using it to run a BBS service and it lasted all of six months when it actually BURNED through the A600 casing, no shit, this is a true storie.) COMMODORE CD-ROM DRIVE : Eventually End.
