Hi all,

i have found that site searching around with google about old mac stuff :)

In my parent's house there is an old Mac IIvx (8mb ram/ 80mb hd /no cd) that was bought around 1991/early 1992 for doing CAD work (at an extremely high price! > :( ) but never did much of it.

It's in good condition and still functional (system 7.1) , even if it show signs of needing a new bios battery, because unable to retain the correct date (it shows 1978 calendar lol), and i would like to let it doing something usefull.

The problem is:

what?

What usefull things can that mac still do?

It doesn't have a printer, but if you have some suggestion about a modern economical printer compatible with it, write it here 8-)

I would eventually try to play around with A/UX, i have read around about people on newsgroups that made it run on IIvx (even if unsupported), but maybe it can do something more usefull.

Some suggestions?

And no, i don't want to sell or donate it... :D

P.S: excuse me for my english, it is not my motherlanguage [:D] ]'>
