That is truth! People buying cheap A600 have more potential for heart 
attack when they see price tag for PCMICA ram!

Falcons have cheap ram boards NOW and anyone can make it in garage.
Falcons have DSP NOW but A600 will never have cheap PCMIA DSP card.
A600 out for 6 months already and people tired of vAApor talk.

This is a discussion group, isn't it?  Sorry, but I just couldn't think of
another word for "the person on the other end of the discussion".  If
"opponent" is too combative for you, how about "netmate" or something like
that?

I haven't seen it, only for the Atari ST.  I think Microprose puts it
out, and they're pretty good at fill polygon things... I think it is 
put out by a 'Microplay' subgroup, actually.  In addition, I have

To be honest, FlickerFixer's don't fit that.  "flickering" isn't a
problem, it was designed with that as a feature.  Some may call it a
misfeature, but it's a feature nonetheless.  Video compatibility was
the goal of the chipset, that goal was achieved.  Technically,
FlickerFixers could be referred to as a graphics interchange, which
merely does whatever is necessary to switch graphics at 15.75 to
31.5KHz.  It just so happens that it scan-doubles/deinterlaces to do that.

So they, under these two circumstances, fail to be kludges, but not by much.

Um, and a 16MHz 386 is not faster than a 33MHz '030. I think comparing
the processors _at the same clock rate_ was inherent to the claim.
Yes, 486's are available at higher speeds than 040's, but then plenty of
RISC chips are available that run faster than 50Mhz. You have to have a
common ground for comparison to make it meaningful.

Nothing announced yet.  Developers have asked about it.  In fact, one was
asking in regard to a combined Zorro II/Zorro III bus master, something that
I would consider reasonably complex (though not such a big deal if you're
using FPGAs or gate arrays in the design).

>And secondly, considering the fact that this would appear to be a plausible 
>solution, in some instances is it often more reasonable to design two cards
>(as PP&S have indicated with the Rambrandt)?

Of course.  If you're trying to run the card at Zorro III speeds, you have to 
assume that it's going to be run fast.  That means that Zorro II users still
have to pay for higher performance parts, but don't get any immediate advantage
out of them.  Depending on your customers' tendency to invest in the future,
the separate boards may seem a better solution.  Other things are simply 
impractical on Zorro II, such as giant memory boards.

>Is it safe to assume that the converse (adding features to take advantage

For a combined design, you certainly have to plan with Zorro II and Zorro III
in mind.  My suggested approach is think in terms of Zorro III, then add a 
few extra bits for the Zorro II support (since you aren't likely to worry
much about the timing of a Zorro III design in a Zorro II system).  In most
cases, you aren't going to find it easy to just tack a Zorro II feature onto
a Zorro III board or visa-versa, you have to plan out the design as a dual
mode board.  But it should be entered from the Zorro III point of view.

This one is a strong rumour.  You get whatever CPU module you can afford

Umm...lemme see.  P...O...T...A...T...O...E!  That's it!  ;-)

Seriously though, I don't think it would be an IDE interface since Dave
Haynie is always stating that IDE is inferior to SCSI.  It'd be a shame to
plop an IDE on a super fast 32 bit machine.  It just doesn't seem logical.

If it's true, then it has to be because it's cheap.
