There's a demo on our Anon-FTP site, ftp.xinside.com in accelx/1.2/demo/ . Two things to note: + If you have FreeBSD 2.x you'll need the FreeBSD 1.1 compat libs + There are some new Mach64 variants, so if the demo fails, try our Beta update in: ftp://ftp.xinside.com/accelx/1.2/beta/ati.tar.gz and use the README in that directory for installation instructions.
