  • ∗ The GEN-X supports an additional 1024x768 text and graphics mode.
  • ∗ The GEN-X can have a second CPU: 68000, 68EC030, 486dx2-66, and more to come.
  • ∗ Each additional CPU in the GEN-X has its own private 4MB of SYSTEM RAM and 4MB of flash.
  • ∗ The EXP-C100-ESID expansion card adds 10/100 Ethernet and two SID sockets to a U, U+, or FMX.
  • ∗ The SNES/NES Joystick Adapter Box for the C256 Foenix FMX converts the two ATARI ports to 2x NES or SNES ports.
