Not mine, never seen one on eBay before. Perhaps someone in USA will enjoy it with their Amiga 040?

I've seen one of these on Ebay, but it was the plus version with extra cache.
I could never get an answer as to whether or not it would work in a 3640.

And even if it did work, at 50MHz it still wouldn't perform as well as a 50MHz '060.

The Quaddoubler was designed for a Mac but also works with an Amiga.

My A3640 is already running @ 50 MHz. Also, the A3640 slow memory access problem is fixed so it outperforms a Quaddoubler. :)

Thanks, great work, btw.

I didn't buy the plus when it was available because I wasn't sure it would work, but I thought the regular Quaddoubler would work.

Nice to know I don't need it.

Crap!
I should have bid.

I honestly don't recall seeing one on EBay, before this one..
Rare??

Rich.


The guy that posted the plus version a couple weeks ago wanted over $300.

Really wish I had bid on this.

Sure, if you have 517 US to throw down on it :/


A better price might be negotiated.
Especially if a quantity were ordered.
If you could get it down to $400, I'd buy one.
'60 boards are becoming rare.
