Which Zorro graphics card is better, Cybergraphx or Picasso?

This is an area of almost constant battle, the respective owners of each card will tell you that theirs is the better model. In my opinion Picasso 4 is the better option as it is still having hardware developed for it, such as a TV Tuner, and video encoder. The Cybergraphx in contrast, whilst having many things promised, has not had much released for it. The Picasso also has a built-in flicker fixer, whilst the CyberGraphx version has to be bought separately. Phase 5 also appear to be abandoning it for their new PPC graphics card. Another advantage of the Picasso is that, due to the availability of the Picasso 96 API it is becoming the new standard for Amiga graphics cards.
