I must give credit where credit is due.

Oh for sure... For sure.

Trust me I have love for the LC II. viewtopic.php?f=9&t=20798

When I called the LC-II a Turd, I guess it was because of my disappointment with apple.

I did not know that the performance difference between the LC and LCII was so marginal.

As i'm sitting here, I have Five LC I's in my collection, Four LC II's, Three- LC III's.

Some side benefits (from what i gather) of the LC-II over the LC-I

_ Has 68030 cpu /w MMU

_ Has a spot to solder on a FPU - http://www.shiga-med.ac.jp/people/sugimoto's/mac/lc2.html

However, another usage for old 68030/040 Macintoshes is a Unix server with NetBSD. It requires a 68882 FPU to run NetBSD steadily.

I didn't know you could run netbsd with only 10mb ram :-D I guess the fact the 68030 now supports virtual memory, your good to go. (slowly)

_ Has a "Tweaked" video circuit to better handel VGA and multi sync monitors

_ Has 2 more meg of ram 4 total

I know the whole point of the LC was COLOR! However If you run them in Black and White. WOW do they become ultra responsive in GUI!

6.0.8 or 6.0.8L Scream on these. 7.1 is not half bad either.

The Macintosh LC-II was the second mac in my vintage mac collection. Also I think the LC-II was the first vintage mac I recapped.

Yes, when I got it the sound worked, but there was this loud Ever Changing PITCH Squeal thing going on.

I left it on over night, in the computer room and the wife said she was about to go in there and smash it.

Sure enough it badly needed a re-cap viewtopic.php?f=9&t=19776
