So I thought I had saved a better sbus video card but all I stashed<br>
away were either cg3 or regular cg6.<br>
<br>
I did find a 13w3->VGA so no need for a new one, yay!<br>
<br>
BUT the big surprise that I had forgotten I had was a Dataram 64mb<br>
sbus memory expansion (with the all important ribbon cable) from a<br>
long gone IPX. It's just the thing for someone with a Weitek Powerup<br>
system - 128mb in an IPX is a hoot! I have no idea what these things<br>
would go for, there's nothing I can find on eprey but I'd rather it<br>
goes to someone who will use it for perhaps something fun I can use in<br>
my when I (hope hope hope) buy that Axil 320 tomorrow.<br>
<br>
Trade for an old SunPC board would be fun or a couple of sticks of<br>
memory? Or something else?<br>

I had never seen one of these before. Apparently they're only for the SS2<br>
and IPX, and require additional power from a special motherboard connector.<br>
<br>
What would happen if you put it in a different machine, and were able to<br>
externally supply the correct power? Could this theoretically work in an<br>
SS1, or an IPC?<br>

No idea, I only used it in an IPX. It's an interesting thought<br>
experiment though!<br>

I'm interested. I got my IPX powered up with the new PSU PCB yesterday.<br>
I'll have a look around and see if I have an interesting video card. I<br>
also might have some spare ram, but I'm not sure which type the Axil320<br>
takes.<br>

It's standard SS10/20/Ultra1 (I think those were the only machines<br>
that used it).<br>
