There used to be a similar product in 90s called Bodega Bay: https://bigbookofamigahardware.com/bboah/product.aspx?id=1362 - it had 4 zorro slots but included the ISA parts for 3 of them, too. It did not include the CPU card slot, however.

@harrysintonen IIRC there were several "turn a500 into tower Amiga with slots" approaches from Amiga market companies.

ISA slots made sense only if you used BridgeBoard (whole pc on a Zorro card) which no one considers nowadays.

@hrw When the A2000 was created, Commodore probably had some vision where the bridgeboard would have become far more important than it eventually did.
