Useful LC 475 upgrades?

* Swap the 68LC040 for a full 68040.

* Overclock if you feel confident that it won't affect the PDS slot. If you feel clever, modify the board so that it can run at variable clock speed.

* Experiment with PDS cards -- SuperMac VideoSpigot (as mentioned), high res 24 bit video cards.

* Big 1/3 height, low power SCSI drive.

* PSU upgrade -- there is nothing special about it apart from the form factor.

* External SCSI ethernet for when you have the PDS slot occupied. A LocalTalk to Ethernet hardware bridge is an alternative if you don't need to exchange large files.

* PDS extenders that allowed two PDS cards to be fitted exist. I presume that they require a case extender.
