Title: Has anyone got a Spider USB PCI card they want to sell?
Post by: Gulliver on March 20, 2010, 07:49:03 AM

I am looking for someone that wants to part with their Elbox Spider USB PCI card. No driver CD or Poseidon keyfile required.
Then make me a reasonable offer and we may cut a deal.

I know this isn't what you're looking for, but I thought I'd mention that you can get brand new Thylacine USB cards for Zorro Amigas for a reasonable price still - http://thylacine.boing.net/

I didnt know they were still selling the thylacine.
Anyway, I dont have zorro slots. Just pci slots.
I thought about a subway, but i had one like 2-3 years ago, that I purchase 2nd hand and it was dead slow! The good part is that I sold it at the same price I bought it, and kept the poseidon keyfile, as poseidon version 4.0 was released and didnt require it.
So in the end I am looking to run Poseidon 3.8 with a Spider PCI card and get about 3MB/s transfer speed, which it is more than ten times the speed that the subway gave me.

Thanks Cammy!

Hi there!
I still have my USB Spider waiting for a Poseidon keyfile...and you say you want a Spider....mmm whast a dilemma we have here... i never ever had the chance of actually using it, since i bought it second hand, and by the same time, there was the issue between Chris Hodges & Elbox...so..never ever used it...

:)

I guess its yours, put a prize, send me a PM or ask Andres about my MSN, and lets keep talking

Hope everything there is ok despite the hearthquake

Saludos
Sebastian

Hi Gavilan, I had no use for the poseidon keyfile, that was why I was going to sell it. The thing is that we could never cut a deal in the end. :)
And about three weeks ago I bought a mediator with some pci cards, so I decided I would give the spider a chance if i find one at a reasonable price.
I am already in negociations with an Amiga user regarding the spider. He will get back to me on monday with an answer. If that deal falls, i will be talking with you.

And thank you, my family and I are fortunately okay after the earthquake.

I will be contacting you next week,

Saludos
