A lot of inquiries about the dfx: interface have reached us during the past week, asking for our involvement in the dfx: project, if any.
A lot of inquiries about the dfx: interface have reached us during the past week. The most frequently asked question was if dfx: uses Catweasel technology. The answer is no! If you are looking for a floppy controller for a Pegasos, AmigaOne or Amithlon that is as flexible and as fast as the Catweasel, your only choice is the original.
In time with the release of the new mainboards, we will have a Catweasel that fits on them.
Pre-orders are NOT taken. Even if it has become common use in this market to charge money for things that are not even developed yet, individual Computers only takes money for things that we can ship next day.

dfx: is not a Catweasel! : Comment 10 of 13 | ANN.lu |
Posted by A.Scott Pringle on 16-Aug-2002 10:01 GMT | Before work was started on DFx i emailed Jens, to ask if a PCI Catweasel would be released at any stage in the future. The answer was NO, as it would be too costly. Hence we began work on DFx.
This product has had its first batch manufactured and we need to get them in action so we can find and fix any remaining bugs. This is why we have let local users in for a pre-order and a discount in the process.
This product was designed and manufactured in Melbourne, Australia and has nothing whatsoever to do with Catweasel apart from a similarity in its function.I hope this clears up any misunderstandings that may have occurred. 8) |
