equill: I will avoid said dark alleys :) I'm surprised though you've not been able to find the cache cards - seemingly a leisurely trip in local hard rubbish would reveal a slew of 486 and Pentium 1 machines with the cache cards in tow?

Just fired it up - loud thing, isn't it? :D Basic specs are 100MB RAM (this will be fun working out what is what - or not!), 1.2GB HD, base VRAM, running a stock install of OS 8.1.

WGS95 installed: Mac chimes and attempts to boot up 8.1 (plugged SCSI cable into WGS internal SCSI connector), but freezes - from reading I believe OS 7.0x and 7.1 are the only two Mac systems that work with this card, and support the cache - can someone please confirm?).

Looking forward to cleaning it all up, replacing that 120mm blast fan, and having a potent OS 7.1 Mac.
