ZZ9000 multifunctional graphics hybrid board for Amiga 2000 / 3000 / 4000 and Amiga 500

The card is compatible with Amiga 500, 2000, 3000 and 4000 (compatible with Zorro 2 and 3) but it must be considered that to use it with the Amiga 500, a Zorro II adapter such as Rob Cranley's Z-500 or the Zorro Checkmate 1500 adapter.
