configuration:
This is not a user friendly type of board to configure.
Because of its high end nature it requires the best of
hardware to run. Normally most people would by the system
directly from Applied Magic (CPU Normally most people
would by the system directly from Applied Magic (CPU and
all). Any shortcuts can result in a non-functional editor
(i.e. 3.0 boot roms, rom images instead of real roms,
Buster Rev 9, slow video drives, slow SCSI controller,
etc..) Also Applied Magic said that any GVP SCSI
controllers where NOT SUPPORTED. So the requirements are
the requirements, anyone thinking "well this SCSI
controller is as good as the Fastlane Z3 but it cost HALF"
be prepare for disappointment. Applied Magic was still in
business but making PC products.

Note: This card features a so-called "breakout-box" with all the connectors for the video equipment. This box is connected to the card with a special cable, similar to SCSI-1 internal cabling, but with special connectors. Without the breakout box and connectors the card is absolutely useless!
