"Bottleneck" inscription on the CyberStorm MK1 accelerator...

keropi · 29 November 2006, 13:11

LOL, just noticed that, the CPU FastSlot on the CS MK1 is marked as "Bottleneck"

maybe for Phase5 their accelerator is faster, but the humble 4000 motherboard holds it back...?
any other funstuff written on amiga hardware? not the usual "amiga rulez" stuff...

It's true, the fast slot is only suitable for an 030, everything else has to slow down to talk through it..

I remember that text too. My first CPU card was a CS MK1 040.. Got rid of it very soon and replaced it with a MK2. :-)

The Emplant had a long story etched on the PCB.. Unfortunately it's one of those amiga rulez texts..

I was looking at my 2000 board today and it had stamped on 'Fat Lady' where Agnus was... is that his girlfriend?!

Bet he got a slap for that.

Agnus is the Fat Lady herself..

The PLCC versions of the Agnus were called Fat Agnus and some call the 2MB version the Obese Agnus.
