Want to Dismantle :) GVP 64Pin 4MB or 16MB SIMM
I believe i posted this a while back here, however its been maybe a couple of months now so a repost is in order,
this was also posted on www.AmiBay.com, for those that dont know about that yet LOL. Okay... after a few talks and chats with people whom bought a GVP Jaws or Jaws II and as we all know getting the memory SIMMS is not only next to impossible, it is also damn expensive!!! well in this day and age this shouldn't be!! especially when one can buy the components at less that a 10th of the cost!!! So I am appealing on behalf of GVP JAWS owners out there, if anyone could donate a 4MB or 16MB 64PIN GVP SIMM for me to... dismantle record the design and then rebuild it. The process SHOULDN'T destroy the SIMM, however i cannot guarantee this, but, the data I gather will allow me to develop clone boards of the memory VERY cheaply, and of course the donor of the SIMM will get not only a replacement should the original be destroyed, but also another clone SIMM I will also post the finding of this project on Aminet as well as on other forum sites, so if anyone is feeling generous just reply here |

That's if Softhut actually have them in stock, their website has been known to tell a few 'porkies' regarding stock......and it's also kind of missing the point of the project.

Are you able to get these DRAMs very cheap? We tried a clone some months ago but stopped because these DRAMs were to expensive (1chip 4Mx4 would cost 10 Euro so 80 Euro in total just for RAM).
