Search cs540 doesn't gave any results on eab. This is not member of Plasmab's terriblefire accelerators family.

As far as i can tell, these boards are prototypes, as mentioned in the thread. The makers try to push the o30 to 60 MHz, while the o40 board is actually not yet working at a 100%.

There are also addons in the making, like a local graphics card.

Very interesting. :) I don't understand why 60mhz 030, because they have 040. It would still be little more than half of speed 68040. 68030 would need to be 100mhz to be equivalent to 25mhz 68040. Fastest stable 68030 is 56mhz.

Would be interested to know more about this. I there any contact information of dev team?

Doesn't look like this will work in an A2000, or, am I wrong?
