- No, you need a TBCIV (MSRP$995,street$850) to capture. $1700 may be the
- going price now, I paid $2200 for the PAR then, and $650 for a Seagate 3600a
- (the first and only approved then).

-
- No, the Amiga PAR was a ZorroII card. The PAR-PC (ISA) came about
- 4-6 months later. The TBCIV is x-platform ISA, it only takes power, and
- communicates with software through the PAR or Serial port.
