| After reading this weeks Micromart's ( issue 964) Amiga section I realised I might just be sitting on a small fortune (relatively speaking) as I've a Blizzard PPC accellorator (a 25MHz 68040 and a 240MHz 603e PPC chip with 32MB of RAM, I think, it's been a few years since I poked around in the thing) and just possibly a Blizzard Vision graphics card (well... it's fitted with a dedicated graphics card anyway) both of which worked the last time I used it. I didn't think it was worth much, to be honest though I don't like throwing anything away that still works (which means that I've still got four Amigas - A500, CD32 and 2 A1200's one of which is in a tower, a Viper 5 50MHz 68030 with a 50MHz FPU chip plus an SX-1 expansion module for my CD32, with a 6MB memory expansion and a CDTV keyboard for it as well). Heck I've still got a working Acorn Electron thats knocking one for 24 years old.
Rig 1 - C2Q Q6600 with a Zalman CNPS9700 HSF, 8Gb DDR2 800, 4870 graphics, Asus P5Q Deluxe mobo, X-fi Fatality sound with a 7.1 speaker set up, 320GB Seagate 7200.10x2, 500GB Samsung x1, slot loading DVD-wr x2, Hiper Type-R 580 PSU, running XP home and XP Pro64. Rig 2 - XP2700, ASUS A7N8X Deluxe mobo, 3Gb RAM, X800GTO, 200Gb SATA system drive, 250Gb SATA storage drive

With the announcement of AmigaOS4 for the classic machines with PPC cards, you are sitting on a pretty penny, a PPC card in working order will sell for between £200 ukp upto roughly £300 maybe a bit more
Bvisions can fetch as much as £100 or above.
Get them out there, if you have them, there isn't enough supply to meet the demand.

Well I've dug it out of my Miggy, not as dusty as I though it might have been in there, anyone know the serial number allocation system they gave them? (numbers wise) as its serial number is IDB0002 (a 25MHz 68040 with FPU, a 240MHz 603e and a SCSI interface).

Dunno about your PC's but it don't matter about the serial number of the PPC card, as long as its working, it will sell. Stick it on ebay, or if you wish, post it to an Amiga portal like Amigans.net or Amigaworld. Alternatively, there is the Amiga classifieds website, Amibench.org
