Ahh... well looks like a P400 snuck in there.

figured i would stack up my LC-III collection while i was at it.

These LC-III have my favorite vintage hard drive installed, made by IBM.

was playing around with a fish eye lens for the iPhone.

Get some Ethernet cards and network them together as some supersized parallel computing cluster!

Be sure to stack them alternately to keep the pile flat and to prevent the vermin from busting through the ceiling in your closet. Quadras are like rabbits, but LCs a close approximation of a hairless sub-species of Tribbles. :blink:

I snagged an LC 1 a while back just for the novelty of dual internal floppies.

Which LCD? I have an empty shell:

12" RGB + SpindlyPlast doomed 1400c goodies = interesting hack possibilities. [

PYLE PLVW10IW - available on amazon and ebay. Works perfectly, plenty fast for any hz that the LC runs -=

Other than the "pyle" part, does it seem like it works ok?

Haha! Yes it's a perfect fit and screen is very crisp. 640x480 in the same 12" form factor with no mods other than gutting the innards of a 12" case, sanding down the screw posts a little and then double side taping it in. + vga adapter of course.
