 I would love to see someone make these old PPC cards again, I'm sure they would make a pretty good lick!
 I think the prices are way to high too but, I wanted a PPC for my A4000D and look here http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=8827401836&rd=1&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWN%3AIT&rd=1

So If I was crazy enough to pay that then.. You can't really say that, if people will pay crazy prices for that stuff(like me) then ole' well...  :crazy:

I spoke with the seller of my CSPPC before bidding. When I got the card installed the system wouldn't boot, after over 1 1/2 hours of trying different things it finally booted, but after a little while I tried restarting the system to no aval. After a month of (Oh my GOD I just blowed $600 buck, Some guys here told me they had the same problem and to check my 68060 socket, with a small flat head scew driver I pride one side of the 060 up a little then pressed it back in and whamO! It has work everytime since! (Lucky? Probly) But its the chance you must take with older hardware.. And I'm not afraid of a little soildering either, having some electronics background is a real plus with older Computer E.Q. lucky the Amiga is quite forgiving! I have done many things to my 1000 and 3000 that would have fried my PC's!
