- Most people (statistically) go for the Blizzard 1230-IV. The technical data
- is impressive, however I am personally disappointed about the fact that the
- SCSI controller is disabled too if you disable the 68030 for compability.
- I do not know much about the M-Tec card, but the Blizzard makes a better
- overall impression from the technical data.
-
- Moreover, phase5 has announced that their PowerPC accelerator cards will be
- available for cheap upgrade prices to all Blizzard owners, which makes the
- Blizzard 1230-IV a nice step into the next generation of Amiga power.
-
- The latter has been the main point in favor of my Blizzard 1230-IV, which
- is in the mail right now. ;)
