Hi guys...
Bad news and bad news from Italy:
my beloved k6-II+ died, two weeks ago, during a storm.
I replaced it with a k6-III 450MHz@500MHz and I'm not complaining about it.
I would like to find a K6-III+ at a reasonably price. Checking Ebay they seem have gone mad: 130 bucks for a puppy.
Can anyone help to find it?

Even "UpgradeAbility" is cheaper than that.
http://www.upgradeability.com/index.htm --- $39.99 to 99.99 USD depending on type.

@Jim -
Fixed.
I wanted the links in
blue , but it seems the forum doesn't like it when you add color to links...though you can colorize embedded links.
Code: Select all
[color=blue]http://www.jlmtech.net/catalog/index.php[/color]
[color=blue][url=http://www.jlmtech.net/catalog/index.php]JLM Electronics[/url][/color]http://www.jlmtech.net/catalog/index.php <- Doesn't work
JLM Electronics <- Works

@ Mamba : Did you contact them and enquire about it? I had a problem like that once w/ a K6-3+450ACZ I bought from them. Turned out it was sitting in the local post office there because of a customs issue. Got them to sort that out and got my "Guaranteed to do 600 Mhz" ACZ from them though it took a while. That is the one in SP3.

Jim, it says "2.0V Core". Wouldn't that mean ACZ?
