Hi all,
I'm selling my Blizzard PPC 603e+ (SCSI, 040@25 603e@160) with 32+16 MB of RAM. I'm testing the waters here, and I'll put it on eBay unless there's someone who's willing to buy it at a reasonable price already here. The only price indication I have is that a nearly identical card (with 64 MB of RAM and a new fan) sold for £490 last week.
As I recall, I bought my card in 1998 and used it for several years before I gradually stopped using my A1200T. When I took the computer out of storage last year I decided to use it mostly for gaming, and switched over to my old 1230 Mk IV, so the PPC card was left over. The card was still working fine when I tested it a few months ago, though it's time to change the battery and possibly the fan.
Included with the card is the cable that lets you have a SCSI connector at the back of the A1200, plus an adapter from the micro ribbon connector, via Centronics, to the large 50-pin ribbon connector found on internal SCSI devices.

Is this still available? If so I am interested. :)

It is! I've been too busy/lazy to put it on eBay or anything like that. I'll send you a message so we can sort out the details.

Do you want to sell it for a reasonable price or 490 quid? You can't do both....

Good luck! I wish I had enough spare cash to afford one of those.

You're probably right, considering how ridiculously inflated prices can be on eBay. Also, the card that sold for £490 had more RAM than mine and, as I recall, a brand new fan (not that there's anything wrong with the one on my card, but it's probably been running for 3-4 years in total and they don't last forever).
Since nobody's made an actual offer, I'll put the card up on eBay when I have time. Let potential buyers define 'reasonable'. Might go cheap, considering that now is probably a bad time to sell, but there's no point in me keeping something that I don't plan to use.

"Reasonable" offer sent.
