Hmm - you're right about the pics, but since both the A2k version as well as the A4k one have the very same AutoConfig ID, I venture it's the very same card, just rebatched. Could be wrong though.

PS: Actually I looked at the wrong chip :crazy: - the chips on the right are 33C93s. The A4k version on BBoAH matches the A2k on AHD in detail - same card.

Boot ROM version? :roll:

'Eletrically' there's no difference in autobooting from 1.3 to 3.9, regardless of CPU or machine version.

IMHO it was pretty lame to sell a Zorro II DMA controller in an 'A4000' version - Z III PIO (with a bit of FIFO) would've been way faster with less CPU load.
