    Not shown: //e and Mac IIci. No room for them. Cables between the Centris/Quadra 650 (Centris 650, rebadged as a Quadra - have the correct processor, ready to go into the computer, tho) and the G3 are video cables, plus power and the SCSI cable for the CD-R drive I used to install 7.5.3 on...

    Mac Plus stuck on "Welcome to Macintosh"

    I assume it boots up fine from a floppy? How about a real hard drive? If it does, then it's possible that the early Plus boards are incompatible with the BlueSCSI for some reason. Which would be good to know, since I'm pretty sure that the Plus I'm getting today from tafkar over at 68kMLA is...

    Adding a CRT toggle switch

    Macintosh SE BlueSCSI mount/adapter for external access?

    Have you considerd modifying the security slot? That way, if you decide to have an ethernet card installed, you can still access the SD cards externally?
