Hi EdKing,

Anyone know where I can buy these chips from ?

I sell them.  How many do you need?   :-D

Oh, BTW... your Workbench 2.1 disks were shipped last week.  Enjoy.   :-D

Hi Etho,

accepts 256k×4 DIPs, 45-80 ns

Are you sure about the speed of the DRAM?  The fastest I have ever seen these 44256 DRAMs is 60ns and these are very rare.  80ns and 100ns are the more common speeds for these DRAMs.    :roll:

Hi Azryl,

Alot of the old PC video cards for ISA slots, use drams as memory expansions on the cards

That is where I find a lot of the ones I have.  I find these DRAMs at my local Goodwill Outlet for about .35 cents per video card.  There is usually 8 of the 44256 DRAMs on each video board.  I sell the 44256 DRAMs on eBay for an average price of $10 to $20 per 8 chips.  So, as you can see I make very good profit on these "rare" memory chips.   :-D

The 44256 DRAMs are also used in the A2091 SCSI Controller board, the Amiga 2000 and 500 motherboards, the Atari Mega ST motherboards, and various other hardware and boards.    :-)

Hi EdKing,

I got the disks, I thought I was purchasing originals, not copies.

I would never sell the "Originals" of Workbench 2.1 for only $12.00 plus s/h.  Workbench 2.1 is the rarest of the Amiga Workbenches and is now going up in value with "retro" collectors.  Consider yourself lucky to get a professionally produced copy of the originals on high quality Sony disks for only $12.00.  I paid almost $50.00 for Workbench 2.1 with the boxed manuals, in new condition.  I can buy a brand new Workbench 3.9 for only $35.00.  So why does a used copy of Workbench 2.1 sell for an average amount of $40 to $50 on eBay?   :roll:

Hi EdKing,

If you look at my original request, I asked for a set of WB2.1 disks, not copies.

That's right, you asked for a set of WB 2.1 disks and that is exactly what you got.  You did not say anything about them having to be "original disks".  If you had, I would have told you sorry I can't help you.

I am not a "clown".  You just need to be more specific in what you ask for.

Hi Piru,

So you're selling pirated copies of AmigaOS aswell?

Like I tried telling you guys before, I had Amiga OS 4 (Full Version) before it was even released, but you guys did not believe me.

You damn pirate scum!

Proud of it too.  Just think of all the money I have saved through the decades.   :-D
