Hey Alan,
glad you posted this as I`m trying to find answers to a fairly simple
question. The part of the above intrigues me more
".....and will run Classic Amiga software at G3/G4 speeds until then."
Assumption:
I can buy one of these board (for my A4k and A1200) and I *DO NOT* need an
exisiting 68k or PPC accelerator to run OS3.9 (or 3.5 or 3.1 for that matter)
because there will be some kind of emualtion solution provided?
Care to comment?
A point of note - a `classic Amiga` that manages to run >=speed of my existing
060 @ 66MHz is *my preferred solution*.....like MorphOS on a G4 card? (instead
of on my 604e - 233)
Take care,
Steve
