Why is it so difficult for many people to copy the right links to Vesalia ?

Not new cards. New old stock, because these cards are surely not ROHS conform.

Except the Viper supports upto 128mb ram and has SCSI support. This one only supports upto 32mb ram and no SCSI... I wonder if these boards from Vesalia have the same FPU "fix/hack/mod" as the one's sold at Amigakit.com? (a jumper wire soldered to the back of the board).

Softhut also have 030 boards available, as mentioned in this thread.

The details on vesalia are incorrect. This card is exactly the same as the Viper. It supports 128mb of RAM, and obviously you missed the "SCSI-II Ready" on the board. All you need to do is solder on the IC, a header, and maybe some other parts.

To my knowledge there are different variations of the E-Matrix 1230. It may still have "SCSI II ready" printed on the board but the SCSI controller is absent and i bet SCSI support is also absent in the firmware. I have the same model from Amigakit.com and it does only support a max of 32mb ram. The only difference is Vesalia include a 50mhz CPU instead of a 40mhz one.

There is an E-Matrix 1230 board (M-Tec version) that comes with a SCSI controller and FPU as standard... this is the one that supports upto 128mb of ram. The DCE Viper 1230 MK-V is identical to the M-Tec E-Matrix 1230 but is not the same as the Amigakit/Vesalia versions.

Here's the one i got from Amigakit.com: http://amigakit.leamancomputing.com/...roducts_id=913

and here are the original full fat versions (before being crippled): http://www.amiga-hardware.com/showha...cgi?HARDID=124

I can spot a few differences already...
