1. Sp: "Bakelite"

2. $45 is a bargain for those things in any condition

3. Motorola

4. DO IT.

Give it a NIC and some speakers and set it up as an audio player.

Thanks for that posting that link and the second round of inspiration! Your's could very well be the coolest ever, can't think of any better offhand. ;)

I quite like the HiFi Plus myself: http://www.arawak.com.au/hifiplus/hifiplus.html

Impressive. I am currently looking for a set of speakers for myself actually.

Not bad. However, the tweeter behind the floppy slot might be a bad idea. I would instead choose another driver, maybe a fullrange speaker, either a very cheap Tangband or something like a Mission koax.

Anyways, here is my vote for the best hack:

trash80 you said something about a IIsi and bankA ram replacement, I think that needs its own thread.

Do you already have a configuration of ram chips figured out? Has this been done before?

That post here was a goof, it was in a PM I was sending to Bunsen, I thought I deleted it before the cat got out of the bag.

Nope, AFAIK it's never been done before. I haven't gotten any farther than what's already explained in the SuperIIsiHack™ thread. When the second IIsi MoBo arrives, it goes under the soldering iron for an experimental, incredibly fugly, RFI antenna kinda transplant. The empty IIsi case is slated for an end run around the IIsi/Rocket software issues.

If I ever actually finished a hack (never finishing maintains the mystique surrounding them :lol: ) that one might actually be worth mentioning in here.
