[idrougge]

Do you really think Commodore used Eagle?

(AFAIK they used Mentor Graphics workstations)

Schematics might not be accurate. Many boards have various fixes which might not be shown in the schematics. But if you want accuracy, then doing the fixes manually afterwards would be the way to go.

Sounds great. Everything checks out on my link, so I will now wait impatiently to receive my package.

[demolition]

.. and I just received it yesterday.

[apex]

Wish you much fun! I will use my new board for the new Vampire 500.

[Mr.Flibble]

Cool, let us know how it goes

I'll gladly take a board if anyone experiences buyers remorse

[demolition]

Does anyone know if they made a component list for this board or should I just go with the original A500+ schematics? There were no assembly documents included in the package, and I cannot check the A1k thread since I am not a user there and they do not accept new users at the moment for some reason..

Edit: Apparently the documentation should be available in the A1k.org thread, but I am not a user there and they do not accept new user signups at the moment, so is anyone else here a user there and could help me get them?

They also have the VIDIOT layout:

in the short of time

So ... jetzt ist es soweit:

- der Hauptteilesatz ist ausgebucht.
- Platinen fast auch

Ab jetzt gehen alle Bestellungen ersteinmal
auf die Warteliste. Warum Warteliste ?

Es sind noch einige unbezahlte Kanditaten dabei,
viele aus dem Ausland. Und auch stehen bis heute
noch einige Antworten aus.
Emails und Erinnerungen sind aber bereits raus.

Bitte schaut auch in den Spam-Ordner.

Ändert sich das ''Tot-Stellen'' in den nächsten
Tagen nicht, werden diese Bestellungen storniert
und stehen der Warteliste zur Verfügung.

Übrigens ... bin ich an einer breiten Verteilung
interessiert und nicht an wenigen Kugelhaufen.
Das heißt, die Warteliste wird in diesem Sinne
abgearbeitet

Weiterhin viel Spaß und Erfolg
Ach ... und frohe Ostern

.
and translate via babelfish (Feel free to translate it better )

So ... now is the time:
- the majority share is booked.
- PCBs almost as well

From now on all orders go first To the waitlist. Why waitlist?
There are still some unpaid candidates, many from abroad. And also stand to this day Still some answers. Emails and memories are already out. Alternate not the '' dead-places '' into the next Days, these orders will be canceled And are available to the waitlist.

Please ... check your spam-folder!

By the way ... I am on a broad distribution Interested and not in a few globes. That is, the Waitlist is in this sense Worked out.

Furthermore much fun and success
Oh ... and happy Easter

would be cool to have A500 to build in kit ourselves

You can use the same motherboard to build an A500 spec machine if you want. Mostly just a few jumper changes, no RTC circuit and half the memory chips installed. The latest A500 machines also used A500+ motherboards. Not sure why anyone would do this though.

Hello to all

Now we have finished to send all paid kits.

But we still have five (5) unpaid orders from
foreign people. I think they are here listed.

So ... this is the last chance to write to me
and telling what to do.
Otherwise the order will be canceled on Saturday.

Hope to hear from you very soon.

Best regards
Micha

[Mr.Flibble]

If anyone doesn't want theirs, I'll gladly take-over an order

Too Late, Mine is already Half Built.
