If you don't want any part of the Indivision to be under the accelerator (In this case Cyberstorm MK II or Cyberstorm PPC), then you have this space to work with:
 

 
Here is a crappy phone picture of my A4000T with the PPC installed, note the red areas. The arrow shows the position of the forward standoff in relation to the edge of the board:

Thanks for the fantastic material! I'll try to count some pixels to get exact measurement from the picture. Saves quite some work, thanks!

Hi Jens,

I would buy one, too. I also agree autoswitch would be a nice idea. We already share monitor inputs with KVMs and there's no spare input.

I would love to pay more than 130 euros for hat nice item.

By the way, anyone has got spare (Escom) tower case to be sold?

Thanks!.

@Jens

Have you made a decision yet whether you'll make an A4000T Indivision or not?

Is this project still happening?  I'm currently trying to unravel the mysteries of RTG and Scan Doubler options for 4000Ts and I'd love nothing more than to have an Indivision board instead.    Researching and buying old Amiga hardware is an interesting hobby to have. :-)

@Jens,

Hopefully, this project is still moving forward.  I like the 129,- EUR pricing range, but I know it will be tight.  You can count me for one as well. :)  I will also send my pic of the accelerator in my A4000T.

Surely an A4000T doesn't have to connect to the Lisa chip does it?

It could be a video slot card with a zorro interface no? All the signals should be there, no?

Except there is a video sync issue with the 4000T video slots. I have a scandoubler card that works great on a 4000 but has glitches on my 4000T. I talked to an Amiga tech, Ed from Kansas, who said this is normal and that it affects the Toaster too. He didn't know of a fix but mentioned a couple of things that could solve the problem. Either the Indivision on the Lisa or Indivision on a video slot card with a video slot fix would be nice. Both have their advantages and disadvantages but either is better than the few solutions 4000T owners have now.

That sounds like it'd incur more development cost than just adapting the current design.

Can't say an actual card wouldn't be nice, though.

Doesn´t the Indivision "replace" the Lisa chip?
