Maybe try getting the early boot menu by holding down both Mouse buttons when you switch on.

The machine comes with a 3-button trackball. Pressing all 3 buttons at startup does not do anything..

Fantastic. These things fascinate me - I remember visiting white knight and being astonished at the capability of the broadcaster elite (I wrote an article covering it, and can't remember if it went in CU or Amiga computing... )

The draco was being considered back at that time, but unfortunately I never got to write the follow-up article! I'd still love to revisit one... *sigh*

Do the Dracos come standard with these boards? I have two that I've collected over the years with the jump boxes? but haven't looked inside the actual Draco to see if there is one inside...

I used to imagine opening my machine and somehow finding that prototype PPC card that was never marketed
