Saw this on Ebay. I don't believe I've ever seen it before.
Does anyone know what it is? Ebay listing says it's an "Atari ST HCS Board",
and goes on to guess that it might be an RGB mod.
Thanks.

I was about to suggest that too, seems to have SIL RAM ICs on board.

Yep. That type would be suitable for machines with a SMT MMU.. But of course, soldering all those wires is a PITA. If its not got install instructions, then good luck ;)

Yeah, I wasn't actually thinking about buying it. I just couldn't remember
seeing a board like this before.
The item is located in Italy, btw.
Thanks for the info gang. :)
