Not forgetting the built-in flash ROM for custom Kickstart images.  Is serial number 0253 low enough? ;)


its been written with a marker and i jus noticed i cannot read it correctly anymore, but its something like 0013 ;)

You can't buy them new anymore. E3B aren't making any new ones and all existing stock was sold years ago.


the parts are obsolete by now wfair. therefore only cards without dma are being built now.

USB 3.0 on an FPGA accelerator is probably the next step to make everyone drool.

Nah, keeping my Cyberstorm MK2+CyberSCSI unless someone offers me silly money. It'll be many years before there is an FPGA accelerator for the A3000 methinks.

Apollo team say that they're going to be doing a Vampire type accelerator for the big box machines but they're last on the list. They need to finish building and tuning the Vampire II for the 600 which is probably going to take them at least until the end of the year. Then for the 500. Then for the 1200.

By the time they get to the 3000 / 4000, I think that we'll just have a complete, standalone FPGA 060. They're practically already there with the Vampire II running faster than a 1260 80 Mhz with Picasso 96, HDMI output and on board SD card. They say a standalone is coming eventually but at the rate they're flying along now, I think it's coming sooner rather than later.
