Specs:
- CPU 68030 @ 56 MHz
- 64 MB RAM
- MapROM function
- PCMCIA-friendly

Today i have received the card from Individual Computers (via Alinea Computer). The performance of the card is really astonishing by showing in SYSINFO a score of 11.683 Dhrystones, a 68030 running @60.50 Mhz.
It was Plug and Play, this time… don’t forget to download the ACAtune Took.
Unfortunately the ACA 1230 RTC kit (which is: chip OKI 6242B and Battery CR-1220) was not directly available, which will be very soon.
Hi there!
That looks like a nice turbo-card. I’ve got an on old 68030-40MHz from Apollo myself, but it isn’t near as fast as this one.. I notice that it scored 11.6 MiPS in SysInfo.. a very good result. My Apollo almost reaches 8 MiPS if I remember correctly. 🙂 Are you happy with the board?
