Glad to have ya!

The first computer I bought with my OWN money in college was my trusty Quadra 630 - Nice sum of 1200.00 used from a Chinese lady on campus. That was 1992-1993 I think. I used that machine to replace a Mac II that I had pieced together from scraps of machines from University Surplus. That Mac II also was the first machine in central Ohio to have the newly released Pinnacle RCD-1000 2x CD burner on it too. I paid 2019.86 for that drive back then. The drive was worth more than the Mac II, and the Quadra 630 combined!

The Macintosh II, the Quadra 630 AND the Pinnacle RCD-1000 Scsi drive still work great to this day. 2010 Wow.

The Quadra 630 however was "upgraded" to a Peforma 6300 series to more or less match what you have. Yes they are very nice machines and I will always have a soft spot for them. They got me through some very hard times back then.

Does yours have the TV/AV tuner system in it? I used my machine for a while with a vcr as my main TV for a while too.

Cheers!
