=== Amiga Autoconfig and Zorro bus ===
In 1984, Commodore developed the [[Autoconfig]] protocol and the Zorro expansion bus for its [[Amiga]] line of expandable computers. The first public appearance was in the CES computer show at Las Vegas in 1985, with the so-called "Lorraine" prototype. Like NuBus, Zorro devices had absolutely no jumpers or DIP switches. Configuration information was stored on a read-only device on each peripheral, and at boot time the host system allocated the requested resources to the installed card.  The Zorro architecture did not spread to general computing use outside of the Amiga product line, but was eventually upgraded as [[Amiga Zorro II|Zorro II]] and [[Amiga Zorro III|Zorro III]] for the later iteration of Amiga computers.
