I am working with some people who are designing a bus expansion kit for
the 500 and 1000, this kit will work with either system and will have
6 amiga slots, and 6 ibm slots, 4 of the slots will be AT type slots,
and the other two will be XT type slots.  This will be in kit form, but
there will be no soldering involved and there will be very explicit 
instructions on assembly.  The kit will not include a case or a power 
supply, although there will be recommendations for cases and for power
supplies in the documentation (size of the power supply will depend 
upon the draw of the boards which are plugged into the bus).  Zorro-1
expansion products can be used on the bus but will not fit inside the
recommended case.  This kit will probably the first DevKit From DevWare
and the reason that I am posting this message is to try and get an idea
of the interest in such a product.  Pricing has not been determined, but
is expected to be very competitive.   Please respond by PRIVATE E-Mail,
flames also, as I don't wish to clutter up the net.  I will be happy to
answer any questions about this kit.  Expected availabilty is late September
(possibly October).

Additionally, we expect to have a memory expansion board (expandable to 
16M) available at the same time.  Other products are planned at a later
date.
