It could give the SE/30 a run for it's money...

If the video card could fit in an SE/30:

Doesn't even fit in the chassis. Won't even go down far enough.

So we had to do this.

It's so tight, that the slot for a addon-chip rubs the edge of the ROM SIMM and nudges the metal shield at the back of the MOBO.

All that, for nothing.

Still, the IIsi has microphone in with stereo support BUT OH WAIT it records it in mono. Ooops. Still, with a JDW - style PowerSE/30, I think the IIsi can be chased pretty far. (Except in the color department.)
