if u can find one, to use it with your 2500 u will have to break it in two. something to do with video slot positioning on the 2500. kinda scary...maybe u should go for the picasso II instead.  as u have zorro 2 slots u won't get the best speed from the picasso 4 anyway.

I have both a CV64 and a Cv64/3D with flicker-fixer on a Cyberstorm 68060 A4000.  The CV64 is much quicker and even though I have to use a 1084 monitor as well as my 17"samtron I prefer the Cv64 over the Cv64/3d.

 I have never seen a Picasso 4 in action but I have heard that speed-wise it is on par with the CV64.  Does the Picasso 4 really have video in and out, as in video capture and output?

Oh the other thing is the software: i use CGX 4 because i think it is faster than P96, for the Phase 5 cards anyway.  I also hate the way icons are redrawn and flicker if you drag them with the pointer with P96.  I also think CGX mode is more flexible in setting up screen-modes than P96 Mode
