@red
Any chance of redesigning the Prom in a way that it
would fit easier/better ? Or maybe some minimalist Zorro3-busboard with one slot (oriented in a way to make the Prom sit where it should sit).

[uncharted]

Nice one Red!

Good luck in this and future endevours.

Hi red, long time no speak.  

Any chance of a zorro II version or a Z4 version

OR just a plain old A1200 version.

Got I z4 busboard in me 1200 see.  Dont want a mediator and was looking at grex(got a bppc)

[Acill]

Wow not that makes it so much more clear as to why you love that board so much! Way to go Red!! If you get it working better then now I may have to get one to replace the mediator I have!!

[Damion]

Nice to hear! Congrats, dude!

[amipal]

This can only be a good thing.
There are plenty of people out there wanting to expand their big-box Amigas. Now all I need is an A4000...

Or maybe a Zorro right-angle adaptor? Better yet, add that to a small PCB to reposition the card so it obscures the ISA slots - almost no one uses those these days - while keeping Zorro slots free.

I second that. I'd like to see a ZorroII version too. All of my machines are 2000s, and a couple of 1000s for nostalgia. It would probably be 'saner' to attach it to the 32-bit buss on the accellerator cards, but there are so many of those to design for.  

I've also thought an interesting idea would be to design a PCI card that would plug into a mini-itx board and a ZorroII slot. Map the Zorro autoconfig space into the PCI space. Kinda like the old A1/1200 combo was supposed to work.

So...you're gonna produce a new run, redrum?

[Crusher]

Great news, hope you will get in touch with european dealers so we don´t have to pay those "humungus" customs fees.  :-)
Talk to Gunne at www.ggsdata.se  :-D

[Merc]

Ooh, that's tempting!  I'd rather pay $125 though  :-D

Does anyone know if these work in desktop A3000's?  I suppose I could go find out online, but I'm too lazy... I'm guessing you need a towered A3k.  If not, I might have to get one.

[downix]

they might work.  The slots right, but the issue is in room, the 3000's case is kinda small.

With the case open.

@redrumloa

$175 for Prometheus boards?
$175 for three years old boards with bugs in the busmastring is much too high price.

As you know during two years Vesalia tried to sell their Prometheus stock for 99 EUR (VAT included) for each board. Ask them about the real value of Prometheus boards.

The price 40-50 EUR for the Prometheus board, mentioned in the 'PCI for genuine 4000T' topic, would be much more appropriate.

I wonder why you hide here the true story about Prometheus and Matay. Here are some facts:

@tjaoz

Your whole evidence against the Promethius comes from Elbox, and you promote Elbox solutions....

Can we say, you are not exactly inspiring trust here?

*edit*  plus, why discuss Matay's issues at all, when this is an AA product?

Anyone who wants to see this worst solution in action and are passing through South FL, I can give free demonstrations.  :lol:
