Super Gold Card



The SUPER GOLD CARD is the first major revision of our highly successful Gold Card. We have replaced the 68000 processor with the 68020 so programs run about 3 times faster and have expanded the memory to 4M bytes. Additional improvments include a fast CENTRONICS printer port, 2 double disk drive ports, virtually crash-proof clock and a socket to optionally connect 5V. We also supply a 3 meter Centronics printer cable at no additional cost.
Pricing: SUPER GOLD CARD £275+£5 postage. This card is sold by QUANTA the independent QL user group. To order check Tel.: 01476 563404 (in the U.K.) or contact: QUANTA e.g. Graham Underwood (Committee member)

GOLD CARD


GOLDCARD

This is the expansion that has been revolutionising the QL. It is very easy to fit, and once fitted it will instantly increase the execution speed of the QL by about 4 times due to the presence of a 16MHz 68000 on board. There is 2M of fast 16 bit RAM of which QDOS sees a contiguous 1920k. The remainder is used for shadowing the QL's ROM and display memory and for the GOLD CARD's own code. There is a disk interface which can access 3 mechanisms (4 with the DISK ADAPTER) of three different densities, DD (double density, 720k), HD (high density, 1.44M) and ED (extra high density, 3.2M) in any mix. The disk interface connector is the same type that was fitted to the Trump Card so most QL compatible disk drives can be used. Another feature is the battery backed clock. When the QL is switched on the contents of the clock are copied into the QL's clock so that the time and date are correct. The firmware in the ROM gives the GOLD CARD all the functionality of the Trump Card like TOOLKIT II and there is a sub-directory system for floppy and RAM disks.
PRICING is £100 for recycled items. The card is no longer in production.
