Re: SE/30 - going grey?

Good luck finding one. I got mine almost 10 years ago and have only seen them rarely on eBay. Keep in mind that it's actually 2 cards and 2 wiring harnesses. There's a card that replaced the little card on the back of the CRT and you also need a compatible color card for the PDS. Then there are

Hi and thank you. No they aren't all the same. Ones that look the same are different models in the same form factor. Like the compact Macs that you see are all different 128k, 512k, Plus, SE, SE fdhd, SE sd, SE30, Classic, Classic II, Color Classic. And the LC's are LC, LC II, LC III. The pi

Forcing 32-bit addressing ...

I'm having trouble with addressing on my LC 575 upgraded Colour Classic and my LC 475. Both have dead PRAM batteries and I would like them to boot with 32-bit addressing by default. Resetting the PRAM doesn't work because it defaults to 24-bit addressing. The Force 32 extension on Gamba's site do
