Well, I also got a bag of parts, and I looked in there, and there was a pristine hard drive sled for the machine (the kind that slides on rails in the machine and snaps in place). The drive in there did not have one on it, so I hooked it on. The bag had a bunch of screws, another bezel for what looks like a external CD-ROM, and the SCSI ID selector hooked to a ribbon cable. I noticed it fit on the connector on the bottom of the hard drive, but I can't make it fit with the clearance in there, so I went without. Probably a good idea.
I noticed both VRAM banks were full, so I think it might have a full 1mb of VRAM.
Also, when the machine boots, in the lower right hand corner, appears to be some SCSI software called APS Powertools 6.0.1, which runs as soon as I get the smiling mac, so it must be an extension that loads really early. It shows all SCSI IDs, with a little box underneath it, and the first ID has the box filled in with red for a second, then green. As soon as it starts the extension march, it goes away. It references a website, http://apstech.com and is copyright LaCie. Anyone have any info on this software, what it does, and where to obtain the installer file before I wipe the drive? Other than that, the software is standard fare. netscape, mac link, aftedark (flying toasters is not there though
), and some game called vette, with the .sit on the desktop. I assume that has to do with the corvette and not the chavette judging by the icon
