Individual Computers: New accelerator cards for Amiga 600/1200?
Jens "Paradroid" Schönfeld from Individual Computers is developing new accelerator cards for Amiga 600- and 1200-computers. An officual announcement or confirmation is still not available but obviously three different models are going to be published in December:
- A1200: 56 Mhz, 64 MB RAM, about 199 Euro
- A1200: 28 Mhz, 64 MB RAM, about 99 Euro
- A600: 25 Mhz, 32 MB RAM
According to Jens Schönfeld the main focus is a fast memory access. Therefore all boards will not include a FPU.
Besides, the boards will also not have a jumper or other preferences. You can only add a clock.
