The SpeedCOM 1200 is a serial interface board designed for use with the clock
port and can transfer up to 460 kbs. As the board address can be changed, it is
possible to use two of these boards simultaneously. It has been developed by Artur Gadawski.
Currently he's working on the PARalizer, a board with a parallel interface.

Since amiga-software.com understandably will close their current design soon, Marc
has kindly made it possible for me to continue my supply at amigaamp.de.
The mailing list will continue at amiga-software.com for the time being.
Unfortunately my CyberStormPPC presently is broken, so that I
cannot continue to work on AmigaAMP. Incoming e-mails can also be answered in a
limited way, because it's only half the fun without YAM :-)
As soon as my Amiga works again I'll attend to v2.8 final of AmigaAMP. Please,
be patient...
