Hi,
Been trying to track down some RAM chips for my A500 sidecar. I've already got 2MB RAM in there which I got for free by ripping RAM out of old PC motherboards.
But it is expandable up to 8MB - only thing is you have to use 1M x 4 chips, which seem to be a little hard to get.
Only source I can find online will cost me about 68 Euro, which is nearly $100 US when you factor in shipping.
Since that's more than I paid for my A500 and sidecar, I'm rather inclined to forsake this upgrade.
I don't think it's an unfair price, just a little hard to justify. I can get by with 2MB fast (I've already got another 2MB chip in there), but some things run a little tight on RAM.
Crazy the way old RAM dips in value then skyrockets as it becomes rarer!
I did find this online --- seems much cheaper, but I'm not sure if it's the same type of chip:
