I disagree. Very strongly disagree. I bought a JoeCard G3/500 which I could not get to work above 400 MHz. I called Metabox and they had me return it for a refund. I subsequently bought a Sonnet G3/500 which I also had problems with but Sonnet replaced my CPU and its been working fine since. Metabox on the other hand has NEVER returned my card or refunded my money. They owe me $380 and their USA location has folded (my letter got returned) and I have never heard back from Germany. E-mail to them apparently goes straight into the termination resistor. Avoid Metabox. = Dr. Frank J.
