GB1000 - talk to me.
« on: January 20, 2013, 08:53:01 PM »
Years ago I started collecting parts to put together a GB1000 board but one never came on the market.

Are the original eagle files still available for the 030 version? I understand the author did a 060 improved version for which he won't release the files. I'm guessing this is down to someone dumping a load of his files on Aminet.

The alternative is to do my own based around an ATX format but that would take some time as apposed to doing a new run of his fantastic board. Just wondering what you guys know before I approach the rather clever chap that designed these.

The biggest pain in the arse is that the one of the builders made a website and its since been removed. The schematics are great it's just that eagle file that's needed.

The files were hosted on a dedicated gb1000 website which is gone. I'll contact the original group buy organiser.

Just go on a1k.org and in the A1000/Phoneix forum where you will find the latest 060 boards arriving. Typical a couple of boards become available in my thread whilst I'm asleep! I could really use one to study if I have to design my own board. If that happens then it will be more likely a2000 based or ATX depending on preference.

You make me laugh. This board will help with the A2000 board which is sounding more and more like a good idea. Thanks for offering this :)

We now have permission to make revision 4 of the board. Things are starting to come together on eab.

Kipper on eab is getting quotes and I'm doing the same, basically whoever gets the best quotes with do the order and distribute.

When customers are taken I'm sure an email to whoeve is doing the order will suffice. :banana:

Well once this order is done I could adapt the gba1000 to an ATX format if it fits. It may require an extended ATX format.

I was discussing the possibility of redoing it around a different motherboard form factor but we now have the go ahead for the GBA1000.
