FS: G-Rex 4000D for Amiga 4000

[Miloo]

No, only Cyberstorm MK III and CSPPC cards have the local expansion bus that is needed.

@alexh

The reserve is at 150 UKP, which I think is fairly reasonable.

[LoadWB]

Errrr, I meant MKIII.  I have an MKIII  My preview button didn't work.

[Kin-Hell]

Let's not forget that the G-Rex is supported by MorphOS :-)

...but not OS4 & thereby making your Expensive PPC card a waste of space & the Amiga not really running as an Amiga! I'll ask the G-Rex boys if they will patch it.  :idea:

I wouldn't call it a waste, since MorphOS is a full PPC OS and there is a wide selection of software available for MorphOS. MorphOS is available now, OS4 isn't. Hopefully that situation will change soon (at least according to the news lately).

[Flashlab]

Just curious but why are you selling the Grex? Is it because of OS4?

[alexh]

The main reason to sell a GREX is cos your CSMKIII or CSPPC has died. Is that the case?

[Kin-Hell]

Heh.....this is gunno be fun.........

[Flashlab]

Well Kin-Hell did you ask the Grex guys?

[doctorq]

@Flashlab

Because the computer it sits in isn't getting used, and I have a spare zorro graphics and ethernet card, so I can build a working and useable spare machine with these parts. I figured I could just as well sell it then.

The two CSPPCs are still going strong.

[Flashlab]

Wouldn't you just want the fastest solution for the machines you still use?

[doctorq]

Yes, but that would mean I would have to use the ugliest computer I have. Time is short so I haven't got the time to make it look good; the one I use the most is already good looking ;-)

There is always pros and cons, and also in this situation. I decided to sell the G-Rex, and in a years time or less I might regret it. That's life, but life goes on, with or without a G-Rex.

Anyway, there is a reason why I have set a reserve price. If it doesn't sell, I'll most likely find the time to make the computer look good eventually.

[Flashlab]

I was just curious but you're going to sell that Grex anyway now. I guess it will reach the 150 easily!

[keropi]

being a G-Rex4000D owner, I can vouch for it's greatness! it's only "flaw" is lack of support for OS4.
I still cannot understand why, do the MOS people get docs and the OS4 ones got screwed?
anyways, it is by far the best replacement busboard, and remember, it has a videoslot!  :-D  :-D  :-D

[doctorq]

:bump:

3 days till the auction ends. Don't forget to bid :-D

[Jeff]

The last one of these I watched went for some insane amount like $600 or $800. This is going to be good, but will put me out:-D.
