@mmaseda So they didn't give me the same options that they gave you; so I used you auction as an example that they can (hopefully) just dispose of the neck board and send me the rest: "Dear Customer, This is the Buyee Customer Support. Thank you for using our service. We are writing about...

@mmaseda -Thanks! I'll see if I have the same options. @Froggy814 -Yea, it's total BS. All so billionaires can have more resources for their stupid hyper-scale data centers.....

@mmaseda - Good to know that at least I can still get the rest of it. What did you have to tell them so that they would do that? Or will they just automatically dispose of the offending parts, and send me the rest?

So, I bid on and won a Micron Xceed grayscale neck-board for the SE/30 from Buyee a week or so ago. I knew I was taking a chance, but the price was good. And besides I figured, it's really mostly just a bunch of wires; it won't be a problem to ship, right? Wrong. Thanks these stupid...

Indeed we did! Mine is still in my SE, and working excellent. Thank you for your work on finding the right board schematic; maybe I might try to build one of these myself in due time.

If it comes to pass, I would be willing to help with assembly. I have a pretty decent solder station setup; if memory serves me correctly, most of the components for this board are through-hole ones.

Agreed! Perhaps someday a limited run of these could be produced.

As someone who was(is?) beta testing a WarpSE for Zane for years...and who still has his WarpSE....I can attest to both the speed and compatibility of these accelerators. They are excellent! It is unfortunate that they did not go into full production......

Honestly never thought about that, mostly because I assumed that Zane would re-appear someday-and I didn't want to usurp his good work.

Oh my god.......I had no idea. I've been beta testing his products for years, Especially his SE/30 ROMS....I think that I have four different versions of them here. One of them has been in my main SE/30 for the better part of five years now, and it is without a doubt the best ROM I've ever...

So I still have the WarpSE accelerator in my SE, and it is still working flawlessly with everything, whether it be After Dark, Microsoft Word, or using my CD-Rom remote. Are there any other updates on the project?

8-layer PCB-that is very impressive! Definitely a lot of work went into this. I'm really happy to see all of the products that are being made to keep our classic Macs alive....and still very much functional! I do have one question about this though- does it have just one pass-through slot or...

This is amazing! I would definitely like to try one out in one of my machines sometime.

I like even numbers when it comes to the memory in my computers. In my main SE/30 I have 128MB of RAM; in my test SE/30 board I have 64MB. Either configuration runs well and has no problem running many different programs, including Microsoft Excel 5.0, Photoshop 3, graphics converter, or...

@JDW -Yes, I ran the tests on a few of my drives, including my Iomega 100Mb: And my external SCSI2SD drive: And I tested other functionality within the program, including it's ability to mount drives, such as my Iomega 100Mb: Seemed to all work well.

So I jut got done installing SCSI Director on my SE running O.S. 7.1 off of it's original 20Mb drive. So far i just did a simple test: get SCSI director up and running. And, it appears to run well, instantly seeing the multitude of SCSI devices that I have currently attached to this machine...

@JDW -what O.S. are you using with SCSI Director Pro 4.0?

I've been doing some more testing simple testing, such as running my "After Dark" fish screen saver run indefinitely, including an hour so far today-with no problems. Another interesting test, this: This is an original 400k disk that my parents gave me back in the late '80's with, of course...

@phipli And a superdrive? Yes! I had both a super-drive and an 800k drive hooked up. The 800k drive was inside the mac and hooked to the front port; the 1.44Mb drive was hooked to the back port and hanging out on my desk. Additionally, here is a shot of my floppy chip:

So I tried to duplicate the test results the @JDW had where he was able to read 1.44Mb floppies off of an SE board with only 800k capabilities and.......nothing, womp womp. Maybe there is another fundamental difference between the re-loaded board and a stock one? There shouldn't be, but there...
