Can the Picasso IV be used on a 4000 system with a Video Toaster? I looked at the back of the Picasso IV box at the Amiga-Hardware link and it mentions something about needing a ZorroIII AND Video slot... is that true?

It only needs the video slot if you are using the Flicker fixer.  The FF CAN be (don't really think it wise) taken off of the P-IV an connected via two cables.

I'd hate to see ANYONE do this though...

Oh, btw, the FF for the C-64/3D will only work on the 4000 style video port, the P-IV will work on both...


Even if I were to remove the Flicker Fixer from the Picasso IV I can't use it because it would plug into the Video slot correct? So with a Toaster I'm SOL for Flicker Fixer on a Toaster system.

Which I suppose would be ok since I could use the Picasso IV in a Zorro slot and just leave the FF module hanging there, and run the native screens off a second monitor for stuff that wouldn't promote..

How much does a Picasso IV run on Ebay or new these days? (I can't surf Ebay from my work computer as they've blocked the site.)

What are the 4000d busboards called?

I'd like to look into that!
