I have had absolutely no problem with my CMI PA in my A1000.  Sorry to hear
yours didn't work.  But the CMI guys are VERY good about helping out with
problems (at either end).  Though the PA doesn't give you the same
performance as an '020, I have noticed a significant improvement in my
animation rendering time.  Compared to many other hardware products we've
seen on the Amiga, the CMI products are very solid and reliable.  And the
products are backed by a friendly group of people who stand behind their
products.  I wish we could say the same thing about ALL Amiga hardware
companies.
