It depends
My experiense is that apollo works just fine with rev 1d4 mobo and kickstart 3.0 and refuses to work with same mobo and kickstart 3.1
Reb 2b mobo is totally unuseable with apollo.
RemApollo is must if buyer is going to use zorro II cards or other expansions, than HD and CD
PS. Apollo would feel much faster than Blizzard 060 because it fast (non standard) chip memory acces. In fact when I get my blizzard I thought that it is broken because it felt so much slower
Its because the Blizzards are buffered so that they will work on any motherboards without the worry of timing issues.
The apollos are a lot faster but need mobo modifications to get them to work properly.
