Title: Amiga 500+ Project Red
Post by: hese7 on May 05, 2017, 06:23:44 PM
Finished my A500+ Project Red motherboard.

More pictures and full story on my Amiga 500+ Project Red thread (http://www.amibay.com/showthread.php?91915-Amiga-500-Project-Red).

If you have the motherboard PCB and are looking for someone to build it, I can do it for you. Just send me a PM.

That looks like a fun project. Good job.
So the benefits are:
New board with new capacitors/resistors.
Cell powered clock.
The advantage of having a plus version (more chipram)
Satisfaction of doing project.

Did I miss anything?

I really hope they do 4000D boards next.

Very nice!  Can't wait for Acill to get mine assembled.  I wasn't aware that they made a RAM expansion for it as well.  I must have missed that.

Colour Composite output from the vidiot? if not there's the S-Video add-on which should be better quality anyway (nothing beats the RGB though, well except a digital output DVI-D/HDMI add-on maybe).
