I have a Centris 610 with this accelerator from Sonnet and I don't have
any problem with it. The accelerator come with a tool for taking out
the old processor and replace it with the card, you also have a "ribbon"
that you put on the alimentation and on you hand (wrist?) for neutralizing
the static electricity.
I haven't install MacBSD yet, I'm waiting for a Jazz drive.
