Thanks, now I know what to look for. :) Are there any Classic-specific sites out there? I know about all the usual sites for downloads and stuff, but it would be fun to see what other creative uses people have found for their Classics. I'm pondering pulling the plastics off, painting them high-gloss-black, and putting a little red led behind the Apple logo in such a way that makes a red glow around the edges. It would, of course, be named Darth Vader. :) Any idea what's the largest hard drive this thing will read? I tried a 2gb Micropolis drive in my LC but it didn't show up.
Peace, Todd

Yes!
I have one. It's also an Applied Engineering card. basically its a small pcb with a connector and an FPU on it. The card sits vertically, whereas the LC is flat (I imagine).
No!
you can't have it :-)
I did think about cloning it, but no time really. I would be willing to loan it out if somebody wants to have a go. I'd like some more for my other Classic II's (well you have to be fair to the boys). I think this slot was intended also for some ROM expansion. Would be interesting if you could copy the system files and run them from there :-)
Or maybe a wireless ethernet adapter as we discussed earlier. I wish I had the time and the skill :-(

Someone recently gave me a Classic II(labeled a Performa 200) and I dismantled it to see if my Applied Engineering FastMath LC would fit in it. I discovered than that there is no PDS slot, but there is a slot labeled "fpu". Are there any real cards out there that will work in this slot, or is it a slot that was put in for future but never got used? If there are real cards, anyone got one they want to trade for my FastMath?
