Good new indeed!

I wonder how many accelerator designs could be resurrected for small-scale reruns?

Retro-Nerd · 28 March 2009, 21:18

Non-ROHS conformal productions in the USA, with illegal imports to Europe?

dir_marillion · 30 March 2009, 10:03

If only DCE followed their example...

Great News!!!

These must be some kind of jokes.

Dunno... GVP have recently sold some 4Mbyte GVP SIMMS to SoftHut who are now selling them on at the beastly price of $35 each!

Peter · 30 March 2009, 13:29

I would prefer to buy VIA Amigakit rather than wait for something to arrive or not arrive from this site...

cosmicfrog · 30 March 2009, 13:35

bum no 1200 things there well page not there at any rate marillion

so can amigakit chime in here with any info ?

Charlie · 30 March 2009, 13:44

Am I right in thinking that GVP are based in the USA, therefore aren't subject to the ROHS-compliance issues DCE would be..?

If so that's a bugger - no re-runs of the really sort-after accelerators. I can imagine it makes economic sence to do re-runs of old designs when there's enough demand but not if a redesign is required...

GVP and SoftwareHut have commissioned a new run of some classic Amiga hardware.

"April 2, 2009 Update - Software Hut and GVP have teamed to bring back many popular GVP products for the Amiga at new, lower prices. These are newly made production pieces with a full 1 year warranty. Many of the items are limited production so hurry as they will sell out fast.

GVP 4MB and 16MB 60ns RAM Module

GVP 4060DT

GVP A2000 060 Accelerator

GVP Spectrum Graphics Board

GVP Typhoon A1200 030 40MHz Accelerator"

I owned a Spectrum RTG card and thought it ruled. Just as good as the better known cards I think. Also I think I read somewhere that the new GVP cards can take 72pin simms.

Hi all,

I found this information:

http://www.softhut.com/cgi-bin/test/...=1014812_61311

If this is really new stuff...I have my doubts but that's goods for those you still want to upgrade their Migs!

Yoto · 04 May 2009, 16:13

Indeed! And so cheap...only $300 for the whole A1200 setup!

Amiga1992 · 04 May 2009, 17:16

As far as I remember GVP products always needed expensive, hard to find memory modules for expansion, making them not a very good buy in my opinion.
Best to invest that kind of money in a Blizzard, Apollo or Microbotics.

FOL · 04 May 2009, 17:28

Thought this had already been posted?

coze · 04 May 2009, 17:57

you should also keep in mind that all the apollos or blizzards are over 10th year of their life time now though the GVP stuff is new.

Amiga1992 · 04 May 2009, 19:11

Is it REALLY new or NEW OLD STOCK or what?

but of course 030's and 060's that come with the boards are not new IMHO.
