Hi,
I have an A500. If I bought a toolbox(which adds 2 Zorro II slots, allowing use of A2000 cards) would I be able to use the Picasso with my 500, and would it be 100% compatible?

Cool, the 020 replacement is fairly straight-forward though, right? You just pull out the 68000 and slot in the 020, no soldering as far as I know.

A possible solution?

"If the Picasso IV is intended for use in an A2000, the flicker fixer can actually be "snapped" from the card and joined to it by a ribbon cable. This is because the A2000 does not have an inline video slot, like other models"

Lol, sounds like this may be more trouble than it's worth, though. Now I just need to track down a Viper 530...
