The CSA board is substantially more expensive and yet is listed as a 14Mhz board (as opposed to the Hurricanes 16Mhz and 20Mhz options). Can anybody tell me why I should buy the CSA rather than Hurricane? Is it more compatible? Do both of the boards come with a way to switch back to the 68000 through software or do you actually remove the chip and make changes that would require opening the box if you have incompatible software? I would really appreciate answers folks, I just sold my Atari 1040 ST and that gives me the money to get one of the accelerator boards.
