I don´t know much about it but since this board is based on the Prometheus and they say "What remains to be done is some more quality testing as well as adaption of drivers for other types of PCI cards, including soundcards." then I think it will take a lot of time to devellop those drivers as there need to be more than OpenPCI can support. Probably at the moment only the Voodoo3 and S3Virge and Fortemedia and RTL8029 cards will be supported and to create some competition with Elbox they will need to support a bit more. Please correct me if I am wrong ....

Michael : please don´t get me wrong, I never meant to say it´s a "crippled PCI design" !! I have two Prometheus boards myself and do not regret it (still need to install them) and I know the Prommy could use 8139 cards when DMA was fixed.
I am interested in the board because I feel the Elbox prices are far too high as there is almost no competition  :madashell: So the sooner your boards gets out the better  :-)
