Hi,

See   http://www.bboah.com/index.php?action=artikel&cat=9&id=1960&artlang=en

"Met@box: AmiJoe 1200"

"This was the promised competitor to the PhaseIV PPC accelerators promising vast performance increases via the use of the PowerPC processor, providing that applications were written for it.

It is not certain whether this card was intended to be compatible with existing PowerUp or WarpUp software, but it's likely it would have been.

Unfortunately, the card was never released although prototypes were built."


I remember seeing an advert in one of the Amiga Magazines around the mid 1990`s for this accelerator.

That was after the demise of Phase5.
