I just upgraded my brothers A500 with a larger HD and some more RAM. I thought I had installed a ROM Switcher board as well but when I opened the machine it wasn't there, just the Kickstart 1.3 ROM!

I seem to recall a few of these around in the Late 80's til the Early 90's, like the Multistart II for instance.

Does anyone know if these are still available as Software Hut doesn't seem to have them anymore.

Yep, kinda figured they would. Well, his machine has 4.5MB in it now and with that GVP A530 he can add more 32-bit RAM into that as well.

It's not such a big deal I guess as he could just use a Relokick and use a 512k chunk of ram. It's just more convenient to have one of these switchers.
