Anyone here w/a Prometheus?
« on: September 05, 2004, 02:45:34 PM »
I guess next week I will order one for my soon to be acquired A4000D.   I figured, why buy a Cybervision 64 when a PC graphics card that costs $25 will woop on a $200 card.  Which graphics card are you using? Any drawbacks to this new setup?

sounds good.. I already emailed Red.. this will be a cool upgrade for my A4k.  The way I saw it.. Spend $120 for the Prometheus (w/o shipping) buy a Voodoo3 on ebay (~ $15) and a networking card ($FREE - $5) total of $140, instead of buying a Amiga networking card $85, Cybervision 64 $200 which is $285.   Replacements for the pc cards are plentiful and cheap  :-o   :-D
