[Hai-users] OmniPro II main board upgrade?

[Dan Barclay]

What are the issues regarding upgrading the OmniPro II
system board (ROM based to latest board)?

 

OK,  $830 (soon to be $1260) is an issue.  I know there is
an increase in serial connections.  Surely there must be an
increase in memory/speed but I don't see how that can be
useful without losing compatibility with earlier boards.

 

What other issues are there? Is board connection layout
changed?  That is, do piggyback boards and connections still
remain the same?  Other differences?

 

I keep changing from "leave well enough alone" to "might as
well upgrade it now".

 

Recognizing that the three most expensive words in the
English language are "might as well.", what's the experience
on this?

 

Also, when I upgrade it generally means there will probably
be an OmniPro III in the works <lol>.

 

Fire away.

 

Thanks,

Dan
