These guys just might be the real deal. If you watch the video on their YouTube page, they show an outline of (what appears to be) a Blizzard PPC card, which gradually populates with copper layers and vias

They wouldn't (normally) have access to this sort of thing without the sources

I'm calling BS on this.  If this was real, then why take the time to white out any readable text and darken the image?  I've seen more believable images of Big Foot.  And these accelerators need to be stuffed into 1.5 meter long boxes?


The boxes appear to be for the connectors and not the accelerators; We've ordered DIN41612 connectors from DigiKey that came packaged in similar boxes

I live in AZ and have some beach-front property that I'll sell you too.

I'm unsure what you're trying to imply here, are you trying to say that if I believe they're connectors, you have a bridge to sell me?

The boxes are indeed for connectors, and what more, the pin pitch and style (based on the part number on the box) match those of the A1200 expansion slot. They're a part series that appear to be made by Adamtec

Here is a PDF datasheet for the part printed on the box (prefix guesssed): http://www.admatec.ch/download.php?file=kel/half_pitch_connectors_8800_series/8806_8807_8816_8817_series.pdf

Compare that to the high resolution dimensioned photo of the A1200 expansion slot on Kipper2k's site: http://kipper2k.com/a1200_expansion_slot.jpg

I haven't had a chance to compare them completely as I'm on break at work, but there may be something to this.
