Another important note
=======================
The TransWarp GS firmware version 1.5 that came with the TransWarp
8K version does not work with 32K cache boards. You absolutely need
v1.7 or v1.8 for 32K cache operation. Since the firmware is
copyrighted material, we cannot supply copies of the firmware. ....
<<
Of course, when it comes to such matters, one never knows for sure what
is available until the seller is contacted.
SHH does list several options ranging from a bare board through one
with everything installed except the v1.7 or v1.8 ROM. The info below is
from their web site:
==================================================================
Option A: Bare boards ("do-it-yourself")
==================================================================
What you get:
--------------
Two-layer piggyback boards for the TransWarp GS with solder resist,
ready for soldering all components. A sheet of paper with short but
reliable instructions how to assemble the board. NOTHING ELSE.
Heavy soldering required!
US $15 per board plus $14 shipping/handling
(six boards minimum, 22 boards maximum for this s/h fee).
==================================================================
Option B: Populated boards, without semiconductors
("dirty-work-done")
==================================================================
Since it is much cheaper to buy expensive semiconductors (such as
cache RAMs) in your own country, you might prefer this version.
What you get:
--------------
A two-layer piggyback board for the TransWarp GS with solder
resist. All non-semiconductor components (sockets, resistors,
capacitors, header connectors) mounted and ready for use. A sheet
of paper with short instructions how to add the components not
included with the board. All board functions verified. No soldering
required.
US $32 plus $14 shipping/handling
(four boards maximum for this s/h fee).
==================================================================
Option C: Fully populated boards, without Firmware EPROM
("almost plug-and-play")
==================================================================
What you get:
--------------
A two-layer piggyback board for the TransWarp GS with solder
resist. All components but the firmware EPROM soldered and ready
for use. The board includes all sockets and three 32K cache RAMs
62256-15 or equivalent (fast enough for processor clock values of
14 MHz and more). A sheet of paper with short instructions how to
add the components not included with the board. All board functions
verified.
