GVP A1200 JAWS II Rev3

I hope this is not disallowed, but I am curious about this card.

It was in one of the Amiga 1200 units that I got, and it has two RAM sticks on it. It is not installed at the moment, so I don't know what size the RAM is... One stick has TMS44400DJ/TCO 4363F3 chips, the other 9335 2NQ HM514400BS6 chips.

The main CPU is a MC68EC030RP40B, with a 68882RC40A FPU. Has a battery on it, so must have a RTC.

Anyway... To the point... I know the reason I took it out was because the RAM, however much, wasn't a lot. Seems I tried briefly to find some and the stuff I could find was very expensive so I gave up.

I ended up getting two ACA1233/40Mhz (no FPU, not N model) accelerators and have been happy ever since.

So this board is still sitting in a box. Seems a waste. I'm just wondering, is it something that is worth holding on to, or is it something that anyone would be interested in?

I'm not trying to hit you up for a sale here, I really am just curious as to if there is even any interest in general, I'm not ready to sell it at the moment anyway.

Thanks for your thoughts!

Surely someone will snap it up if you put it for sale. GVP made a quality product.

I have to say that my hoarder tendency is on one hand why I hold on to it, but on the other hand, it seems stupid to have it sitting in a box if someone would actually be using it for something. At least I will make sure to take care of it while I am deciding, it won't just get binned.
