      Hi DENNIS,        In a message dated 27 Mar 03 you wrote to CRAIG HUTCHISON :               DS> Is the GVP "Tekmagic" 060 a good buy? This May is one year since the A1        DS> was ordered. If it doesn't show by this May, I was thinking about        DS> moving on to this upgrade for old A2K. I really need more memory and        DS> some speed. Using Thor uses up just about everything! That's why I use        DS> this AmiQWK.              I have seen so many people put off upgrading their Amigas because of the       vapourware bull that's been put out over the last half decade and more. I       remember people back in 1996 putting off buying faster than an 030 because       "they're waiting for the A\Box, which will be here next month!"              Essentially, in *this* market, don't put off buying *ANYTHING* just because       someone else has promised something better due 'really soon now'. I'm not       saying the AmigaOne won't appear, but you've had it on pre-order for nearly a       year!              I don't know what specification your A2000 is now, but even over a 25MHz 040       the 50MHz 060 is a good four times faster or more for most things. And being       able to add 128MB RAM will make just about anything usable (which will be       expensive compared to todays DIMMs, but a fraction of the cost of what it was       a few years ago).              --         Neil Williams aka nOw2 - CompSci - Fido 2:250/607 - SysOp of TKG BBS       --- Mail Manager 1.22x/n #1511        * Origin: 9,600 bps (2:250/607.20)    |
