310 Euro, without CPU 260 Euro.


Nice board. I don't understand the objection to the price. Its the fastest '30 upgrade available.
So it should be fast AND extremely compatible.
And w/o the processor (which can still be bought fairly cheaply) it seems like a bargain to me.
If cash wasn't in short supply here right now I'd snap it up.

The only disadvantage I see here is no 68882.

 Apollo 1260 cards made in 1996-98, min. 600 Euro. Why?


Thank Jens. They can't be made anymore, and he doesn't seem to want to do '040 or '060 accelerators.

Personally, I don't know why no one has made a cheap 68EC060 or 68LC060 based accelerator.
Floating point calculations aren't used much and could be performed by a math library.
And those cpus will clock at 75 MHz or higher.

are you SICK ?

Are you OFFENSIVE?

At the current price its not a bad deal.
And soldering an '030 socket is a PITA.
