I posted this in February.

I just re-capped another LC-III,

More about, Why I think the LC-III is Fabulous and why everyone should own one:

- They are CHEAP! you can pick up one on the bay for cheap ... Way Cheaper then a LC475/q605

- That Zero Ohm Resistor from one spot, to another takes it to 33mhz, a substantial free speed boost.

- Rob the ram... Rob the VRAM,, SO what? its still going to work, boot it up and run your vintage apps. (VRam/Ram slot empty).

- You can toss a LC-III in any pizza box case, if all you have is a LC-III main board laying around.

- 7.1 capable

- A Re-Cap is so simple on these. Very straight forward, Cap count is low.

- Per. last point, because of the low cap count, like 99% of the time

just doing a re-cap, makes it good to go, they are robust! Leaking cap goo almost never screws one up.

A great 68k mac to have in your collection, and to use frequently.
