   i have a SX1 here, and its real nice extender for cd32   
      
   despite that it only have room for one ram socket and 4M mem   
      
   i have "ide" hmm good and cheap shit :)   
      
   if it was made a gvp it would have being scsi, hehe   
      
   SX32 is with a 68030 if i remember

   yep this is the bad about amiga models none of them is equal, its like all the   
   girl names in it :)   
      
   only exception is that there is 2 paula   
      
   that means that programmers that code to amiga os need to take care of what   
   hardware programs are targed to, and then at the same time commodore says use   
   the rom functions :/   
      
   would have being more a point if amiga was rtg/ahi from the start   
      
   why is that important ?, it would have helped more on created a more   
   widespread amiga programs library that is more compatible with emulators and   
   it would imho have made better optimizing then what lattice c did :)   
      
   blink (lattice c linker) could make programs overlay so a1000 with 256K mem   
   could save ram in a way that it just load program parts that is needed, not   
   the whole program into memory, that was dropped in slink (sas c linker)   
      
   atleast i could not find any docs on how to migrade this part from blink to   
   slink   
      
   kickstart roms that is more or less not handling errors in filesystem with   
   lost rdbs or even make validate, validate currupt disk partions kills more and   
   more my left amigas here, loosing more and more software that is impossible to   
   regain from stores is badly enough :(   
      
   what next for me i dont know    
      
      
    Regards Benny
