CU_Amiga; There might be some 128MB simms in those 35 pounds :) Or even better, those rare 256Simms which I am yet to find...

Post by: PiR on October 09, 2003, 06:15:55 PM
What the hell???
And I still have only one poor 32MB SIMM working???
What a curse it's soooo faaaar away from me. :-(  :-x  :ranting:  :pissed:  :nervous:  :flame:  :destroy:  :getmad:  :crazy:  :griping:  :boohoo:  :angry:  :madashell:  :ak47:  :evil:  :cry:

Anyway, I think when redrumloa wins this he will have maybe some spare SIMMs for Amigan? :-)
With his new Gubernor who'll dare to beat him? ;-)
He'll be back. :-[

I doubt it, the seller states they are probably between 4 and 64meg. He guarantees nothing and I seriously doubt when he says he hasn't picked though them. He's a memory dealer, his likely cherry picked all good(big) sizes.

That said, I am bidding on this and will probably win. :-D

that sounds like someone who will put all his money on something he really wants. So, the moral of this thread is, Dont advatise the good stuff you want on amiga org where Redrumloa lurks :D

That's so cool.  I'd like to buy it and cover a wall in my apartment.  Don't think the wife would agree but I think it'd look neat!

Holy Crap! 35 pounds of memory.
There's something to be said when memory starts coming by the pound.

Hi Red

could be interesting if some of the Simms,  should be of 2MB 70 ns, good for ChipRam replacements.

I've found 1 of it in a, "mercatino delle pulci" (a place of used things) for a couple of EUR.

They gains the chipram access of 13%.

Ciao

Boy you're good :-D Since I'm bidding on all 3 auctions, I doubt I really need 100+ pounds of simms for my private collection :-D

It says

There could be anywhere from 4 - 64 meg in here


There must be some awfully small RAM sizes in there. Maybe it means that each SIMM is 4-64 MB, rather than a total of 4-64MB per box?

tokai:well here is a good tip .. NEO is now Rockstar games (who made GTA3 pc port etc)

NEON is infact nomore than our friends in Sanity (the amiga demo crew from the mid 90's , Chaos as lead programmer)

Ocean is now merged with infogrames and some people went into ubisoft (along with team17) .

etc :D

i guess i confused you even more now :)))

cheers
