I just wanted to ask everyone how much an Apple II Accelerator should cost.
Im just curious what the community thinks...The last Ultrawarp Michael
auctioned on eBay went for >300$ and that was the older 8Mhz model.

My card gets to 16.667Mhz and has 128k memory. It behaves like an advanced
Accelerator //e. The "final" Ultrawarp might have more/better features in
the future.

1. what should a Ultrawarp cost 2. what features do you want/need

My sense is that the novelty of the card drove that high eBay price. I agree with Hugh's valuation. $200 net (i.e. with shipping factored in) is about the limit I'd be interested in paying.

With memory being so inexpensive, why not add multi-MB "Ramworks" aux memory capability with the option of mapping it above anything that already exists in the AUX slot?

The addition of Ramworks-style memory would make this a must-buy for me. I sold my
Ramworks card some time ago and I regret it.
