- Four hardware manufacturers announced '060 boards for the 2000 :
-
- Phase 5 : Blizzard 2060
- '060 - SCSI-2 - 4 72-pins SIMM sockets
- Apollo : Apollo 2060
- '060 - SCSI-2 - 2 x 72-pins SIMM sockets
- Tek Magic (GVP) : Turbosystem 2060/50
- '060 - SCSI-2 - 2 x 72- & 2 x 64-pins SIMM sockets
- DKB : WildFire
- '060 - SCSI-2 - ? 72-pins SIMM sockets - PCI based bus
-
- The Blizzard may have the advantage to be made by the people who make the
- Cyberstorm. It seems to be the cheapest of the four too (approx $1000). It
- should be available in March.
-
- I have no information about availability of the other three. Both the
- Apollo and the Turbosystem should be priced around $1400-$1500, while the
- WildFire should the most expensive, around $2000.

- If anybody here has more information, I'm highly interested as I'm about
- to release the third version of CompilAIBB.
-
- CompilAIBB is a collection of AIBB modules from various Amiga setups, along
- with a detailed AmigaGuide documentation (check Aminet util/moni). Next
- version will be labelled 2.0 and should feature more than 120 AIBB modules,
- including :
- - several Cyberstorm 060, with and without CyberVision
- - Blizzard 1230-IV and 1260, and Falcon 040 for the A1200
- - Apollo 2030, CSA Derringer and MegaMidget Racer for the A2000
- - and many more...
- Major improvement in the documentation results from the use of a brand new
- datatype for AIBB modules which makes module browsing far more comfortable!
-
- Sorry... couldn't resist! ;-)
