A3000 >A4000 etc... The address $FC0000 is carved into stone, that is silicon, on an Amiga 1000. Don't anyone bother me about future versions of the OS moving to different places. If that ever happens on an A1000, then it will be through a ROM hack which does away with the WCS, and there won't be any more point in enabling it, will there. Same goes for all models of the Amiga after the A1000... they don't have a WCS. Markus Wandel mwandel@tiger.waterloo.edu (519) 884-9547
