Ebay & VGA Discussions (all). Ebay & VGA item links and USER auction links PART II

That DC looks mighty suspicious there. That board sticking out of it looks to be much older then boards made around 99-2000. My guess would be its part of a old PC that he has somehow fanageled into it and made it look like something a dev would use to make some money off it. If it dosent go higher then 5 or 10 bucks though it may be worth it just to see how he did it.

But then again I could be wrong and it could be legit, who knows :shrug:

won at 230$! people are crazy!

 

Looks like he has just shoved a board in to the modem slot. Also he says it runs DVDs. Yeah, right!

I concur, it has genuine parallel hardware and the spots for the bracket for a computer case. It's old to be ISA and the card on ISA is too long to fit in the slot for the DC. Probably filed it down hoping noone would notice.

A handful of other item's he is selling:

Looks like he gets stuff surplus/bankruptcy sale and crams it on ebay. Anyone need the periscope part for an Abrams?

 

Its a fucking time machine. DC spins disc so fast that it breaks the space-time continium and that board lets you control it to make it safe for travel, duh. All you need then are moon crystals.


Actually, it looks like ti hooks up where the modem is located so I'm guessing it is a tool to allow upload/download of codes directly onto the DC to test out on it's hardware. Sounds logical. The seller could be legit, he probably doesn't know what he's selling, which can be a good deal for those willing to see if it does something unique.

 

I'm willing if it stays cheap. Could use a spare DC and 2 controllers.

 

Well if you guys want it I will stay out of the ring, just make sure to post back in a seperate topic what it was. I have never seen anything like it and I would bet that it is home made. Weather or not it works is anyones guess lol.

 

The problem with mystery hardware is never the hardware, but the software.

Plenty of dev house hack together their own custom hardware. Course that hardware is usually worthless without the custom software to drive it.

This is odd - the circuit board looks like it could be a legit developer board, it has a parallel port. I'd guess it might be used for GD emulation. If that is the case, it obviously doesn't have onboard memory (the memory chips would be surface-mount, not in large DIP packages.) So scratch that idea.
It's possible it might be something to monitor the memory registers of the DC. Then again, you'd need a large buffer as transferring many megabytes of the DC memory through a parallel port isn't practical.

The card doesn't look like it was removed from a PC, I can't recall any PC expansion cards that have relays on them, with this combination of parts. It doesn't look to be a one-off mod job, the PCB is professionally made.

I'm pretty tempted to believe this is real. However, just to check, I cranked up the brightness of one of the pics in Corel photo-paint:


Doesn't it look like the modem slot is just open, with nothing in it?

Again, it may be real, the modders may have simply routed the wires through a different hole, and bypassed the expansion port entirely.

If it stays cheap and no one else here wants it, I'll buy it and do an autopsy.

 

i think this is legit, i've seen those before afaik these are debuggers
