Congratulations for Amiga users with Classic computers, now you can enjoy the new OS characteristics.


Erm... not quite, you forget to mention that would only be Classic Amiga users who happen to own a PPC equipped Amiga + GFX card... ;)

On this side of the pond, the remaining Classic Amiga user(s) generally do, at least the ones I know.


Ahh... but over the water here, most don't (even the ones I knew when the Amiga was still popular never owned one), they were too much of being skinflints to part with 500 quid plus to ever buy one... :(

Though oddly enough they were happy to spend that money on a PC or MAC but most now regret it, cos it costs them an arm & leg to try and get back into the Amiga scene these days via eBay... :)

We now have 128MB SIMMs in stock for Blizzard PPC - ideal for using AmigaOS 4.1 Classic


Just had quick look at them pity they're double sided, I use these already in my BPPC and plain Blizzard060 and they work fine, but I've been looking for ages for a single sided 128MB SIMM for my plain Blizzard060 as the double side ones are so thick that the only way I can keep them in place is by using a cable type shown in the picture below... :(

I was just wondering do you have or do you ever get in single sided 128MB SIMMS for these boards as I'd love to replace my 060 one with a SIMM that actually fits... :)

128MB Single sided are very rare- I have one in my A1200 at home but we have been unable to source them new recently.

The new 128MB SIMMs we have in stock measure: 108 mm x 29 mm x 8 mm

They are 50ns memory at the moment as well


Thanks for the info, just checked the dimensions of my SIMMS they are 9.35mm thick, so I don't think the difference of 1.35mm is going to help... :(

(Pity... Hmm... wonder if I could sand them down a wee bit... :))

@Nearly-Right
You got your fingers burnt with 4.0 classic and there's no way you are going to buy 4.1 classic on principal. I totally get it, it's not as if you are the only person that feels that way.

No being biased here but... ;)
