Zorro III

The Zorro III is a computer bus specification, introduced in 1990 with the Amiga 3000. As an expansion bus, it is used to attach peripheral devices to an Amiga motherboard. Designed by Commodore International lead engineer Dave Haynie, the 32-bit Zorro III replaced the 16-bit Zorro II bus used in the Amiga 2000. As with the Zorro II bus, Zorro III allows for true Plug and Play autodetection (similar to, and prior to, the PC's PCI bus) wherein devices are dynamically allocated the resources they need on boot.
