Seen boards on ami/eBay for £150 ish, probably cost me close to that to build my own, throw in a few fake 030's and it's about the same.

Pretty far away from the £400 Blizzard B's are going for.

Guys like Rob Taylor who did the A500++ and C64 boards setup a Tindie store, the think whatever the cut Tindie take is worth it to have a middle man.

Just an option, try not to take the stupid people to personally, it's just 3% of society.

Stephen, you've done a great thing for the community with the TF boards, pitty the few with a lack of self control spoil it. If your willing to take the advice of a stranger, get out of the direct sell, it's to much hassle, plenty of guys running stores would be happy to do the customer facing stuff...

Similar plans, ZZ9000 in dispatch from MNT. Should be fine as they have tested with Zorro II systems. But fingers crossed.

That was a pretty schoolboy mistake, viewed as raw and saved, now can view ok.

If I mirror the view in OBV and then rotate 270 it pretty much lines up, thanks.

Hi,

There is a tf536r1_openboardview.brd file but it does not seem open in the few free viewers I used (including OBV)

Does it need Cadence or Allegro ?, also is there a V2,.. just want to check my pin1 is correct for the ICs.

I noticed that as well, no updates since March but he did say he was going to do a custom board to hold the fpga.

Hopefully a cheaper and more available alternative to Vampire2.

Hi

As long as you have floppys and a working drive installing the OS, is easy, CF cards are just ide drives so will be detected just fine, then partition and run the installer.

Getting anything that's not on floppys will require a gotek and a load of download adf's. It will take some time.

Thanks for the full BOM.. if I ever do this again, not going to do all these damn caps.

That reminds me, was there an unpopulated BOM that lists the caps on the underside ?, and the link for 44pin ide pin strip actually points to 40 pin strip,.. so I guess I just over order ? then snip down, unless there is some real 44 pin available.
