I wrote this in response to a query about memory expansion for the
Amiga.  I tried mailing it, but it got bounced by the unix mailer, as
usual.

I bought an Insider (1M + clock) from Abel supply.  Their price is still
the best I've seen, and they were prompt.  This seems to be about the
cheapest 1M expansion I've seen.  And the clock is great!

Installing the Insider is NOT trivial.  It took me several tries to get
it in.  The directions were clear enough, but you have to be pretty
patient to install the three little clips on three obscure spots on
the mother and daughter boards.  Just be prepared to take your time.  It
probably took me 3-4 hours to get it right.  Once I got it in it worked
fine.  I love it.

As you probably know, some (old) software won't work properly with the
fast memory there, e.g. Textcraft.  They include a program that consumes
all of the fast memory, so that these programs will work.

Abel's address is:

Abel Supply, Inc
Rt #3, Box-705, Middlecreek
Seveirville, TN  37862
(615) 428-5100

I have no connection with Abel Supply or the makers of the Insider,
other than happy customer.
