For those who wonder when Motorola started producing 68LC040 processors without the errata that caused problems with software FPU emulation, here is the actual PCN right from Frees…

I can confirm it is a straight swap, but you might need to force it to be set as a master drive by shorting pins 45 and 47 on the ATAPI connector. Certain revisions are already se…

Nice. We'll look forward to seeing a copy of that.

It looks to me like the RCA cables terminate in a 2-pin plug at the mystery board, so my guess is they are wired together and bring the (mono) sound out to a stereo amplifier. The …

Really nice! The Color Classic was such a great unit. I wish they had made one with beefier specs for upgrading...

One of my 12x drives pooped out...I just ordered a new old stock TEAC CD-224e (24x). The 12x drive that failed is a TEAC CD-211e. I seem to remember ordering the 224e before as a s…

For the Ram gurus here, a question. What happens if you mix FPM and EDO Ram in an 8600/9600? Machine gets flakey, won't boot at all, smoke and flames, or?? Also, I just picked u…

I picked up a book called Macintosh Revelations yesterday. The best part about it is the CD that it comes with--a huge BMUG archive of shareware, freeware, and public domain goodie…

That's probably the simplest, most reliable and safest way. I meant if you thought it was worth using as-is.

nubus cards manufactured specifically for the AV Quadras. Click to expand... That would be the Radius SpigotPro AV aka SpigotPower AV then - it has a connector which allows it …

NTSC also has the advantage with newer sets that are either 120 or 240hz being an exact multiple of 30 and 24. Click to expand... The question is moot now in the USA because NT…

Ours was taken into an AASP and we were told by the tech that he took it apart and cleaned everything(mirrors, lenses, etc) and swapped carts and such but he just did not know what…

I disagree on the prototype idea, its probably just a limited production board made by a upstart it could also hook up to the apple //c style monitors they used a combination of d…

My money is still on video output now that I see they are male RCA plugs. One video, one audio and one TTL. Click to expand... I'll go along with that - mostly. It looks to me …

Another possibility, which fixed the LWS360 at my high school (which I now have in my storage unit) is that the toner cartridge has gone bad or empty. We replaced ours (which is ex…

You need more than software. The 840av — without one of a handful of special AV Mac nubus cards that also connect to the video in slot on the logic board — is pretty useless for t…

We have a LWS360, I am quite fond of it but almost every cap in it has failed so the output is buggered. If you get blotchyish fading on one or both sides and the pattern is the sa…

Does it have the RAM card?

That big plug which just loops back into the receptacle right next to it is just strange. Click to expand... Not strange at all. When the board is in use, that is the standard …

That is a weird board. That big plug which just loops back into the receptacle right next to it is just strange. However, with those two mini-jacks coming off of it I'd venture a g…

Nice, those Color Classics are hard to find cheap let alone free. Did you use a set of those plastic special TV screwdrivers to adjust the video (I snagged a set from Radioshack wh…

Thanks for all the input. I might get 4x 4 MB totaling 16 MB.
