Oliver Thanks for the update. One other thing springs to mind is that once you have that running card the whole thing needs publicity. ISTR that I found this...
El Tue, 05 Aug 2003 07:17:43 -0000 ... With RTG it would be great. With ANY gfx card, it doesn't matter which one... if a monitor switcher was included onboard...
Yes, monitor switching is a problem. Hence why the PIV was so useful. Now I can get a 2nd hand A4000 but PIVs are hard to find.... and then I can have a...
Hi, As requested this is the first of a weekly update.. although dont expect much. :-) Ok, you may have read about the Benelux Amiga show in Rotterdam , well ...
Hi, Well that went well, two updates and then I forget to post one. :-) Anyway not much has been going on Coldfire wise, I instead took the USB and Firewire...
Hello Oliver, ... Then remove USB and firewire from the accelerator ? i've like a accelerator with usb, firewire, sound card and graphics cards... all in one...
... I have no problem with that. ... You'll find a great deal of support for that suggestion, but if you ask people to put their money where their mouth is,...
Hi, ... 500-1000? what sort of dreamworld or component list were you thinking of??? shouldnt cost more than 150. i would prefer a card with module pins - ready...
... of??? ... I would like to think that mr. Hannaford-Day would get some money out of this as well. Remember that although there are many Amiga owners who...
Hello Andre ... Me too (and preferably one for my A2k). All the "extras" or "addons" are nice but what is needed is the accellerator. Regards Ulrich...
I think the problem here is economics Oli is entitled to make money for his efforts BUT given he has chosen to develop a A4000 model first any sales are likely...
El Thu, 04 Sep 2003 09:06:28 -0000 ... I agree in that, a gfx card for the 1200 version would be very dessirable, even a low end one would make a big...
... If it is to be a replacement for existing accelerators in A4000s or A2000s, it would need a SCSI port. Otherwise, the hard drive(s) will stop working. I...
Hi, ... Yep, thats the way I would probably do it although the PCI bridge chip is a big thing, as would be the graphics chip so I would rather find a none PCI...
Hi, ... I dont intend to try and get back the development costs of the card, the price will be based on the following important factors: Production cost (Which...
Hi, ... Lol, The basic Coldfire card will be about £150/170-ish, a card with built in graphics card would cost much much more, the graphics card alone would...
Hi, ... Firewire will not be on the final card, USB, well that could be optional as its not a surface mounted chip so a socket with a header for the USB port...
Hi, ... Its a hobby for me, some people spend hundereds on there car, some on there house (Some even on there wife... although dont ask me why) and I spend it...
El Thu, 04 Sep 2003 17:21:14 -0000 ... I think minipci graphic cards and firewire controllers are available (but hard to find, I know)... If the graphic card...
Hi, ... i wouldnt base anything on the old price of CVPPC or BVPPC cards. the permediaII is not a cheap component...and neither was the memory chosen to...
Hello Jaime, ... a radeon 7000 AGp graphics card costs less than 40 euro... yes, 200 eur is too much for pc market, but this is a minoritary market.. But,...
Hi! Just to say...: i've got my blizzardPPC plus BVision in my original case... ;-) Yes, i think about make an other case in carbon fiber with the same design...
Hi, Well last night I managed to get some free time so continued to lift the legs up on the Coldfire to see what was causing the heat, first the Address bus...
Hi, Another week, another update. :-) I have removed the dead Coldfire, cleaned the PCB and have now started fitting the new Coldfire. I have also changed back...

Hi, ... No, as for a nice good reason not to... ermm I can not think of one however there are a number of schematics online. I would recomend visiting...
