I had the 386 bridgeboard, 486 slc board, and all of this housed in an A3000T............ALthough cool all The Commodore bridgeboards I had never worked 100% the Golden Gate was great but .......... I did have one cool GFX card for the pc called the winstorm from sigma designs, Featured a vesa gfx card, sound card, joystick and scsi cdrom controller buitin to one card.
To each his own, I used to have this fascination and I eventually outgrew it.
Some of the best times I had using my Amigas were on my A2000 w/030@40MHz Vector accelerator, GoldenGate 386sx Bridgeboard & Emplant running MacOS7.5.5 to run Netscape Navigator. My brothers and sisters were puzzled and amazed that I was running all three OSes at the same time from one computer, though I did not boot into Windows3.11 too often (it was horrible). I still have the WinStorm combined VGA/Sound Card/hard drive controller card and floppies with drivers, but was not successful in getting it set up in my A3000T last time I tried. I might have to put it back into an A2000 instead, like I had it before. Although probably not needed, I added the connectors to my A2000 mobo to make all 4 ISA slots 16bit, instead of 8bit and they seemed to work fine.
I just sold my 486slc GoldenGate Bridgeboard w/doubler chip making it 50MHz, (Edit: hardlink, though not technically a real 486, Vortex did make a GoldenGate 486slc Bridgeboard) but kept my 386sx GoldenGate BB with the same chip, as I was told that after adding the upgrade CPU chip, both bridgeboards would have the same CPU speed and power. I would like to get it all set up again for nostalgic reasons and get my Monitor Master switch to work transparently with the Amiga & Bridgeboard's display outputs.
