  Last I heard it’s supposed to come out six months after the MultiBridge HD is available…

  That puts it where… Sometime next year?

  I’m not sure that’s just what i heard from a supplier. He’s a BMD reseller but might not have gottten that info from BDM.

  Six months?????

  Hm. I guess they don’t really want to sell the Multibridge studio to us PCI-X users… -;)

  This thread has me confused. All the PCI variations has me confused.

  I was told by a BM reseller that the MultiBridge Extreme ships with a PCI express “bridge” card.
  This is not a PCI-e (express) card but a PCI-X card.

  This means that the unit as it ships now will only work with the “older” G5’s and NOT the new ones with
  PCI-e slots.

  This is good. Can anyone confirm?

  Thanks.

  The PCI-X card is an option. MB Extreme comes with PCIe.

  Just have a look at the BM site. The card is pictured just below the Multibridge studio.

  What I am wondering is: When does the PCI-X adaptercard ship and at which price?
