I wonder if any other PC cards had the same chipset as the magnum card ? I
wonder how easy it would be diverting video O/P to an ISA card in one of the
slots ?
Does anyone have any technical manuals for these boxes ? I have an old Mips
R3330 server box that came with a full technical ref manual giving a full
memory map so something along these lines may be useful.
Rich.
