I would not risk making any statement regarding performance before either getting any first hand info from the show or before looking at some benchmarks and real-world testcases published by some "independent sources" (e.g. neither Elbox, platon42 or E3B).
At least I would never judge about performance just by looking at some fuzzy videos of a language that I don't speak.

Btw, was there any estimated price mentioned already? This is were it all finally depends on. Just look at Ebay prices for a Blizzard 1260 (up to 250 EUR!).

Again, it was reported on PPA.pl that Elbox said during the meeting that the prices on their website are correct, i.e. 349 EUR (VAT excluded).


Ok, thanks. I think they mentioned something about some sort of "exchange program" or discounts for Mediator-owners?!

edit: Doh, it's on the same website:
"As soon as the DRAGON 1200 sales starts, registered owners of Elbox MEDIATOR PCI busboards for Amiga 1200 computers will receive a special incentive upgrade offer."

Let's wait for some real benchmarks.


Amen to that.
