- The CyberGraphX software it uses requires at least OS 3.0.

- You really should, because CyberGraphX is sort of a must-have for
- any graphicsboard, not just the Cybervision.

-
- Not a chance. It is very slow and only supports Zorro-II. The EGS board
- (which is similar to the Piccolo classic) supports Zorro-III, but has
- the same ancient graphics chip.

- No, but it enhances speed and features on all boards.

- > Basically which board Is the one I want?
-
- A fast Zorro-III board: Cybervision64, Piccolo-SD64 or RetinaZ3.
- The Retina doesn't have a passthrough for the Amiga signal, the
- other two have. The 2 MB versions offer the best value for their
- money.
