It's great to see that new boards are released for classic Amiga systems. :)

I'm not clear exactly what the SuperPLA does.  It seems to be a replacement PLA clone for C64s with broken PLA chips (by my best guess).  

I have a C64 with a broken PLA chip so I'm interested if that's indeed what it does.

Looks like great news, there is something for everybody.
I would like to see the ACA500 with ACA1231 and see how it all fits together.

I may have to buy the 256MB BigRAMPlus for A3000/A4000, its cheaper then ZIP ram chips which only gives you 16MB total.
A500 KS 2.1, 1MB Chip, 68000
A600 KS 3.1, 2MB Chip, ACA630 32MB RAM
A1000 KS 1.3, 8MB RAM
A1200 KS 3.1, Blizzard IV 50MHz 64MB RAM
A2000 KS 2.1, 68030 25MHz, 6MB RAM
A3000 KS 3.1, 68030 25MHz, 16MB RAM
A4000 KS 3.0, 68040 25MHz, 16MB RAM
CDTV KS 3.1, 4MB RAM
CD32
(AROS BOX) Dead :(

I hope the A3000/A4000T Ram expansion works with all SuperBuster Revisions not just Rev 11. I Believe my A4000 has a Rev. 7 Buster.

It would be nice if the BigRamPlus works when installed on an A3000 Zorro III busboard!
Thanks Jens!!!

My A500 is modified to address 1MB chipram, half on the mainboard and half in the trapdoor.
Will that be a problem for this accelerator?

I suppose the 14MHz CMOS-68000 processor card will be installed on the CPU socket (68000). If I'm not wrong, the additional 2MBytes RAM will be managed directly by the CPU. So you'll have 2+2MB.
Wait & See...

Kedawa: No, that's actually what you are recommended to do. Any Fast RAM in the trap door will be disabled by the ACA500.

VingtTrois: You mean 2 MB Fast RAM (on the ACA500) and 1 MB Chip RAM (0.5 MB on the mother board and 0.5 MB on the trap door expansion).


Lot's of A500 owners will probably modify their A500 to have 1 MB Chip RAM. :rtfm:
