LC475 3rd socket? — #8

Well, Dana's website said that a later version took out the CUDA button, but I'm not so sure myself. FYI, my Macintosh LC 475 also has a auto-eject floppy.

LC475 3rd socket? — #7

I think most, if not all LC475s have the red CUDA reset button - I have two LC475 boards that have it, but neither of them have the ROM SIMM slot, just the solder pads.

LC475 3rd socket? — #6

It's not too, too rare, actually. My Macintosh LC 475 also has the ROM SIMM socket (along with a red PRAM reset button) too.

LC III questions! — #8

No it needs to match the CPU's clock speed, so it should be a 25 not 16 like that one is. Also don't expect a big performance boost from it.
