It's a pity the pics don't reveal so much. All I can say is that Daystar offered quite a range of upgrades/accelerators at the time and that the control panel you can still download from AppleFritter at http://www.applefritter.com/node/4686 covers the Turbo 040, Turbo 040i, Image 040, Quad 040, Value 040, Value 040i and FastCache Quadra. DayStar Quad 040 Accelerator seems to have been the name of this CDEV/Control Panel. The designation "Quad 040" seems redundant if it wasn't meant for a speed upgrade for Quadras running at 25 or 32 MHz. Maybe the article in question is just that, I don't know. The interesting suggestion by Chris that it could be sort of an AV upgrade is erroneous IMHO as presumed DSPs alone don't make the difference - where are the ports? Video in/out, RCA jacks for the sound? And the DSP on the 840 AV mainboard here (AT&T 3210) doesn't look very much like the chips on the board shown. I'm puzzled, anyway, as I believed the DSPs were by TI. But I'm sure someone more knowledgeable than me can clear this up.

Cheers, OM
