Here we go again from a guy a who owns a 4000T and 060 in OZ you should know. Its simply because this is what people will pay. Is it to much? Then I would say it depends on how much you want one. I went the Mediator way, but surely this is an individual choice now quick hide th spoon and stop stirring my friend. :-D


I guess i didnt mention that it was a project in progress. I was tossing up between going the SAM path instead and tweaking my own. I was curious as to what made this a better card than a $100 one. After an opinion rather than a flame. Incidentally, how do you know i havent bid? :)

LOL, at 1000 bucks, id have to say your right. I got most of my info from:

http://amiga.resource.cx/exp/search.pl?product=picasso&company=#picasso4

I am just trying to rationalise burning $1000 when the SAM440 is about.

I have a Cv3d v2. I reckon it may be good enough for what i want it to do after all. I am not shelling out more than 1000 for it.
