[edit] TODO from article

I moved this from the article (this is where it belongs):

TODO:
  1. List chips and separate functions of every chip in their new entries.
  2. Better explanation of resolutions. lores, hires, overscan, interlace, ham, etc.
  3. Merge the above feature list..
  4. Organize all better
  5. Move to Amiga chipsets and make redirects?

  1. Where should the Amiga specific disk drive controller be presented? Amiga system differs from PC systems
  2. CIA chip explanation has not been created
  3. Serial port capabilities should be explained somewhere. Perhaps refer to a more generic serial

[edit] A2500

Did the Amiga 2500 ship with OCS or ECS or AGA?? --Tonsofpcs 21:23, 13 August 2005 (UTC)

The "A2500" is just a marketing name for an A2000 bundled with an accelerator card (also available separately). So it shipped with whatever A2000s were shipping with at the time. Mirror Vax 00:18, 14 August 2005 (UTC)

[edit] ICS (Initial Chip Set)

My early 1985 A1000 (which would go very high on ebay) does NOT have Original Chip Set, but Initial Chip Set! So I would not say that OCS is the very first chip set of the Amiga. -andy 85.176.228.48 (talk) 23:04, 7 February 2008 (UTC)
