Picasso IV - what can it do that the other cards can not?

@red

Most of the PIV auctions that I have witnessed, end at around +-$400. Picked mine up for $365 boxed with all the software and manuals. Looks like it was never used. If I remember correctly, the PIV retailed for something like $1200 when released. Software Hut lists them at $389.95 and I assume they are new in box. Looked through my latest back issues of Amiga World and VideoToaster Magazine and couldn't find anything on the PIV.

The PIV was released 1997. I could be way wrong about the $1200 price tag.  :inquisitive:   I find it tough to believe that the PIV originally sold for less than the PII.

  Software Hut (in their 'centerfold' ad) $420
  Safe Harbor $439

Could you scan those pages to .pdf and share them with the rest of the class?  :-D
