Does anyone have a CyberStorm PPC and/or CyberVision PPC they would sell?

There is more chance of the pope coming out of the closet during the next Pride march than finding these things for sale.

Just out of curiosity, how much would you be prepared to pay?

I reckon CSPPC would go for something between 500 - 1100 € these days, depending on speed specs of course.

I think Amibay is the best place to lurk for these beasts.

I'd pay what I consider to be a fair price based on what's on offer. I have posted on Amibay too.

I see the 160mhz models up from time to time.  Don't (and never had) one of any stripe, unfortunately :(

If it's for OS/4 use you're after it, what you'll wind up paying would be better spent on a Samantha board in terms of raw performance, although those are not without their own issues.

If you ever see a DMA-fixed, USB-fixed, properly cooled and new-battery installed Teron (A1) board for sale and don't have to mortgage your house, buy that.  They're underclocked to 933mhz all the way down to 800mhz, but from what I've heard getting them running at 1ghz isn't impossible and will give you the fastest OS/4 platform period.

Just sold both of mine within the last few months.  Actually traded the second set of CSPPC & CVPPC for an 80MHz CS Mk2 plus cash.

I almost never ran any PPC software on them and now I am into running MorphOS2.7 on 1.5GHz & 1.42GHz G4's and will soon have a new X1000 w/PA6T, so running PPC software on the older, slower Phase5 cards is not that appealing anymore.  So, running 68k software at 80MHz seemed like it would be more useful than the very rare instances of running any PPC software on an A4000.

The CSPPC's are rare, but they come up for sale a few times each year.

Pegasos II is the fastest and most stable OS4 platform available, full stop.

Stachu may have something if you find nothing else - he's the resident old school PPC guy, but I am unsure how much he does in the bigbox Amiga world.  I sold him my A1200 accel and gfx card some time ago, and he's very well known for wringing the absolute piss out of PPC accels speed wise, lol.  The king of Amiga overclocking, a wonderful resource.

Are you wishing to run OS 4.1?  If so, getting the vintage kit to run it may not be worthwhile.  I flogged said A1200 bits and bobs and just used my SAM 440, which can be had for fairly inexpensive lately via the used market.

Oh snap; you're right.  Sorry, I should've said "fastest A1 OS4 machine".

The Peg2 was streets ahead in build quality and speed.  Didn't mean to dismiss it by exclusion.
