The Texas Instruments TSB43AB23 is a compatible FireWire controller, so the card should "just work." You'll need the DM10 development libraries, see the Aggregator for more: viewtopic.php?f=3&t=9046

If you get this card working, we can add it to the list.

I like the Tez on paper, but the Fuel is a lot easier to live with. I already have one hot, loud computer.

A question I could ask is, how is gen-locking with sgi machines?
I would like to use ntsc composite/s-video and do some chroma keying.
Also, I saw a SGI Iris Indigo for sale, how well do you like this machine?
Cheers.

SGIs are better than Amigas at genlocking. An Iris Indigo is about the same age as an Amiga 4000, and the R3000 model is roughly as powerful as an '060 A4000, with more RAM and a magnitude better GPU, but still not enough to handle modern video. For SD video, you need at least a good Indy or O2.

Pedantic point: the original Indigo came out July 1991, while the original A4000/040 emerged in October 1992, so not exactly the same generation (but benchmarks generally agree with your comparison; see, among others, http://www.netlib.org/performance/html/ ... .col0.html ).

Thanks! I'm proud of it too.

Elan (i.e., Express graphics, such as Indy XZ which is the same chipset, etc.) has no true hardware texture mapping support. It's quite nice for non-textured work, but textures will seriously compromise its performance. You'd need to step to HighIMPACT graphics and an Indigo2 to get around that.

Since you asked, Q3 plays relatively well on my 800MHz Fuel with a V12, certainly enough to be playable. There are some graphical glitches in the menu, however.

That said, my quad G5 with Quadro FX 4500 mops the floor with it.

If my apartment building wasn't so old, it would probably be half that. I bet more than half of my electric bill goes right out the windows and cracks in the walls as heat in the winter, and cool air in the summer. In the spring and fall when the weather is nice, I spend $20-30 on electric, but in the summer months it can get close to $200.

Last month, for 924 kWh, I paid $214. However, this is a 2400 sq ft house. When I lived in an apartment, I usually spent between $80 and $300/mo (higher in summer of course).

I think the Indy is by far the most space-saving workstation as well: you can put things on it (monitors, other systems, etc). You can't really stack stuff on an O2.

Anyone have any "Alpha Powered" stickers I can purchase to stick on my 164LX case?

Failing that, does someone have a high-resolution scan of one so I can prep it for Sticker Mule or some such?

I knew you'd know!

I've had experience with making vinyl stickers before; see http://www.floodgap.com/iv/2412 (I do have some more of these). So I think I'll load these into Illustrator and make a production run through Sticker Mule. Due to the minimum order size, I will have some spares.
