How much less does an LC 475 motherboard cost than the whole thing? If the price difference isn't much, it might be cool to just get a whole 475. -About how much would that RAM, VRAM, and 500 MB HD cost? -How would I turn an LC 475's 68LC040 into a full '040? This sounds like a really nice 68k Mac, and all in a convenient pizza-box case, too. A project I'd definitely like to do. > Mark Benson wrote: > > You need the following to make it a really nice desktop 68k Mac: > > LC475/Quadra 605 Logic board > Full 68040 > LCPDS Ethernet card (optional if you don't have a network - I do) > 500MB or 1GB 50-pin SCSI hard disk (don't go much past 1GB as the PSU > can't take it) > 2x512k VRAM SIMMs > 64MB Single-Sided, Single Bank 72-pin RAM SIMM (this will NOT work on > the LCIII logic board) > > Assemble all that lot in that case and you will have a nice nippy > little 040 Mac. > > Or if you really want to go mad you can buy a whole LC475 and do what I > did :): > > <http://homepage.mac.com/markbenson/q805.html> > > -- > Mark Benson > > AIM - SilValleyPirate > > Visit FlatPackMacs online: > <http://fpm.gotdns.com> > Mac LC Central > My homepage: > <http://homepage.mac.com/markbenson/> > > -- > Vintage Macs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and... > > Small Dog Electronics http://www.smalldog.com | Enter To Win A | > -- Canon PowerShot Digital Cameras start at $299 | Free iBook! | > > Support Low End Mac <http://lowendmac.com/lists/support.html> > > Vintage Macs list info: <http://lowendmac.com/lists/vintagemacs.shtml> > The FAQ: <http://macfaq.org/> > Send list messages to: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > To unsubscribe, email: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > For digest mode, email: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Subscription questions: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Archive: <http://www.mail-archive.com/vintage.macs%40mail.maclaunch.com/> > > Using a Mac?
