i have no idea, but the best choise is a Blizzard 1230 Mk4
A3040/25 AmigaOS 3.9
A1260BPPC AmigaOS 3.9/4.0
Sam440ep AmigaOS 4.1.2
PegasosII/G3 AmigaOS 4.1.2/MorphOS 2.7/Debian 5.0.7/SUSE 11.1
MacMini/G4 1.5 MorphOS 2.7/OSX 10.5.8
Long Live Amiga

If i am going to have bugs on my system,
at least let me keep the latest versions.

Which Viper are you talking about? The 1230, 630, or 530?

Sold by Power Computing (sometimes with the game Breathless). Amiga Format gave the mark 5 a very good review I think, but be aware that it may have a low mhz rating whereas the Blizzards and later GVP's went up to 50 mhz and had a SCSI option. Either way it would make vanilla 1200 quite a bit more attractive to use, I'm sure.

If you're looking at the same Viper 1230/28, I saw today on ebay that's a 28MHz one.
