Just super great...

For RAM2GS II (GW4201D) -- 8MB RAM for Apple IIgs

This is the only RAM card you will ever need for your IIGS. Maxes out the RAM to 8MB and works like a dream. And, its so darned tiny! It was amazing to see the size of the thing when it had arrived. I love it. I also purchased the IIe RAM card and that one is equally awesome.

There are some ridiculously expensive memory options out there. Just buy this, it's much cheaper and the quality is top notch.

Inexpensive and excellent!

For RAM2E II (GW4203C) -- 8MB RAM for Apple IIe

Not only is this priced right, but it works great. Popped it into my unenhanced IIe and now I can play games properly and I have a ton of RAM to work with. What a great piece of hardware. I also purchased the IIgs version and will be testing that soon too. Thanks for offering these to the community!

Works great!

For RAM2GS II (GW4201D) -- 8MB RAM for Apple IIgs

Very nice product! The card is very small and it doesn't take much space in the Apple IIgs. I had it for some time now and I am very happy with it.

Works perfectly

For RAM2E II (GW4203C) -- 8MB RAM for Apple IIe

This card works perfectly in my unenhanced IIe. It's also much smaller than the original 64k 80 column card, so it makes it easier to route the cable for my VGA card.

Service that goes above and beyond!

For RAM128 (GW4208B) -- 128kB RAM for Apple II

Great product (more than enough ram for your Apple II :=) and perfect service from the maker. Recommended.

Very precise and durable Protractor

For Turntable Protractor - Cartridge Stylus Alignment

I was looking for a protractor for my turntable online and when I read some of the Amazon reviews about off-center holes I realized it could be hit or miss. One of the searches leads me to this site. I realized this is a community of producers and enthusiasts who value their craft and quality, so I had no doubt to order my protractor here. 100% satisfied. Quality is perfect, shipped on time. Most important – I am glad to support creators/producers, not resellers.

Great Saturn128-compatible card

For RAM128 (GW4208B) -- 128kB RAM for Apple II

I got this for my ReactiveMicro Apple II+ clone just for a bit of extra RAM and it works perfectly. This is a great alternative to the chunky vintage language cards if you're looking for functionality over collectability.

Very nice product, would certainly recommend :)

For RAM2E II (GW4203C) -- 8MB RAM for Apple IIe

As a new Apple ][e owner, I had this product recommended to me by somebody on an Apple forum. It is very nicely made, works perfectly out of the box, and offers easily configured memory options not available on original cards. Not only that, but the price is better than used originals on eBay, even if you include shipping to the UK.

I've certainly recommended it to some fellow users and think it's a great product.

Fantastic Price, Great Build Quality

For RAM2E II (GW4203C) -- 8MB RAM for Apple IIe

This RAM card worked perfectly out of the box on my early Rev B IIe. Shipping was lightning fast.
I needed an 80 column card for my IIe, at this price point why not upgrade the RAM too!
Being able to use software targeted at the RAMWorks board means off the shelf software is compatible.

Works great!

For RAM2GS II (GW4201D) -- 8MB RAM for Apple IIgs

Upgraded my original 4MB RAM expansion with this and it couldn't have been simpler. GS/OS sees the full 8MB and everything works great!

Jared | March 17, 2021

Literally the Cheapest 8MB IIGS Ram card! But it works!

For RAM2GS II (GW4201D) -- 8MB RAM for Apple IIgs

So here's the deal I ordered this for a IIGS I got about a month ago. I wanted 8MB or ram So I could check out all the cool stuff including an unrestricted GSOS experience. Well I got that with this 8MB ram card. at a price that is about a third of the cheapest other option. It works too. It would be even cooler if it had maybe a 32 MB ProDos Drive on it with some tools like other Ram options but at this price I am not complaining about a lack of that!

Best bargain for //e RAM expansion out there.

For RAM2E II (GW4203C) -- 8MB RAM for Apple IIe

Sure, you can search ebay and buy a genuine vintage 64k extended 80-column card card for your Apple //e. Run you $25 (or more). Why not pay $10 more and get 8Mb?!? What a no-brainer. Plus, even more low-power consumption than the Ram Works, clones, etc.

Brian | Feb. 9, 2021

Great addition to IIGS

For RAM2GS II (GW4201D) -- 8MB RAM for Apple IIgs

I don't use my IIGS a lot but had been attempting to run GS/OS using 1.5 MB of memory. While it will run it's not very happy. Adding this 8 MB card proved to be very good and it seems to work properly in all ways that I tested it. Considering that this option seems well developed and is still somewhat cheaper than other similar products I believe it is worth the cost and then some.

Love this device

For RAM2GS II (GW4201D) -- 8MB RAM for Apple IIgs

Turns my Apple IIgs from an underperforming disappointment into a powerhouse. I didn't realise how many games needed the extra RAM.

Kay | Feb. 4, 2021

Works great!

For RAM128 (GW4208B) -- 128kB RAM for Apple II

You cannot find a cheaper and higher quality RAM than this product.
Shipment was quick and I was able to purchase with confidence.

John | Jan. 25, 2021

Affordable memory

For RAM2E II (GW4203C) -- 8MB RAM for Apple IIe

Decent shipping time, priced right and works great out of the box. I would have liked a little documentation packaged with it but it was easy enough to look up online. Would definitely purchase again.

Philippe | Jan. 8, 2021

Excellent product! Excellent support!

For RAM2E II (GW4203C) -- 8MB RAM for Apple IIe

There was Initially some incompatibility between the GW4203B and some other expansion card in my Apple IIe. A big thank you to Zane for his patience and dedication and above all for finding a working solution (I was dreading a back and forth between both vendors!)
Could not be happier!

John | Nov. 18, 2020

Just worked!

For RAM2GS II (GW4201D) -- 8MB RAM for Apple IIgs

Plug and play, and great value. I’d picked up a Apple IIgs to play with, as I’ve never seen one before. I added a BOOTI to quickly load from USB, and once I added this card I was able to run GS/OS. Nice ;-)

Christopher | Nov. 17, 2020

Great product - no brainer for your Apple IIgs

For RAM2GS II (GW4201D) -- 8MB RAM for Apple IIgs

At this price point, this beautifully small product is a true "no brainer" upgrade for your Apple IIGS! Thank you for making new products.

Chris | Nov. 14, 2020

Awesome product

For RAM2GS II (GW4201D) -- 8MB RAM for Apple IIgs

Purchased the RAM2GS II 8MB card for my IIgs. Really well made and designed product. Works perfectly! Definitely recommend.

Fast shipping and great service!

For RAM2GS II (GW4201D) -- 8MB RAM for Apple IIgs

I ordered my first GW 8MB module last month for my Apple IIGS. Over time I noticed that the machine would crash on a regular basis. I was able to perform a RAM test and determined that the module had several RAM errors. I sent a note to Garrett's Workshop and they straight away sent me a replacement memory module, which has worked flawlessly. My IIGS is rock solid stable now! GW has amazing customer service and stand behind their product. Buy with confidence!

Sweet price, great features and function.

For RAM2GS II (GW4201D) -- 8MB RAM for Apple IIgs

I have an existing, fully working vintage 8MB card, but - man, it's huge, and I'm sure draws a lot of power. After a recent rebuild of my IIgs power supply (X1 safety cap's blew and filled the room with foul-smelling smoke), it made sense to do what I could to reduce the power load. This card is perfect for that - low power draw, modern components, smaller footprint - it checks all the boxes and then some. I've had zero issues with it to date, and you just can't beat it for the price and features!

Perry | Aug. 13, 2020

Works Great

For RAM2GS II (GW4201D) -- 8MB RAM for Apple IIgs

Works great right out of the box. No complaints. Got to me in a reasonable amount of time. I had a question and the customer service got right back to me.

Bryce | July 24, 2020

A great product at a great price

For RAM2GS II (GW4201D) -- 8MB RAM for Apple IIgs

The process to order was easy and the goods were shipped quickly and arrived in a very reasonable time frame given the current international circumstances. The Memory expansion card came with a slip of paper with very clear instructions on how to install it. The installation was a breeze and my Apple IIGS now has just over 4MB of RAM and boots GS/OS 6.0.1 without any issues at all.

Thank you for providing these products to keep retro computing alive!

Vladimir | May 27, 2019

All good

For RAM2GS II (GW4201D) -- 8MB RAM for Apple IIgs

I got this to replace original Apple 1MB board. The board works as advertised. Just plug and play. Takes very little space and allows easy access to the board in neighboring slot for HW debugging, which was previously obscured by large Apple board.

The quality of board is good, as shown on pictures. It was shipped fast, and packed well. The seller provided dedicated email for technical support, which I did not need to use, since everything was working.

I would recommend the seller and would likely buy again from them if they will come up with some other interesting gismos
