Yours is probably like mine then.  I've got three sbus slots, no upa.
>From the info I've been able to find it looks like it was only the E
models (creator series) that had upa.  A guy is selling a ZX card on ebay,
that sounds like the one you described (2 sbus slots).  Don't want to put
$100 into it though.

The thing does find 544 MB of memory when it boots, and came with a 19"
monitor, so I'd like to find a good use for it.  Just my geek nature I
guess.
