With respect, CHILL OUT! By the way - there are a lot of people on this forum with a lot of Amiga experience (I do not include myself), so do try not to rant in quite such a patronising way. Help and advice are always appreciated, condescending attitudes never are.
The Cyberstorm boards are ridiculously expesive, so just because
"I already said you can MOD the 040 card to 060 by swapping Resistors on the CS PCB. "
doesn't mean someone is going to risk their hardware on your say-so.
There is no FIRMWARE to flash there-after and a converted 040 to 060 card will perform flawlesly BECAUSE..........the 060 CPU takes it's instructions from the INSTALLED libs, just as ALL different Amiga Accelerators do!
It really is that easy.
Oh and by the way - the Blizzard boards DO have 040/060 libs in their flashmem, and all the libraries in your LIBS drawer don't make a bit of difference because the flashmem ones are made resident at bootup, so that's one more reason no-one is going to risk their CS board on your "I already said you can ..."
Dont confuse "Modern-Bill-Gates-Cr4p-based-hardware-firmware updates" with the Amiga.
You would presumably be referring to anything based around software updateable chips then (eg EEPROM, CMOS, CPLD, PLD) - all of which are present in Amigas and accelerators.
Dammit! You went and made me make my 250th posting a negative one. Sigh
