  I have an A500 with the a-501 512k RAM expander, the motherboard has 
been hacked so the 501 works as chip ram. I want to get the latest 
version of the OS, and I have a few questions:

1) What is the version I should ask for? Is it 3.1?

2) This is a complete package that comes with a chip and workbench disks, 
right?

3) Will my chip ram hack interfere? (btw I should add that's not all the 
ram I have, I have 2 megs fast ram in my GVP HD stuck on the side)

4) I seem to recall hearing awhile ago that this ROM has a built-in 
degrader. Is this true, and if so how well does it work for older demos and 
things like that?

5) Do I need to specify that it's for an A500 (I don't think so, but I
thought I should check)?

  Email is preferred, I read this group regularly but my feed tends to 
lose things.

Thanks in advance!
