    *Battery Gore Thread* NSFMacs

    This thread is now an ongoing album of general motherboard mess! Feel free to share your worst! **Since it is October and Halloween draws near I thought "what's scarier than spooky battery explosions, awful cap leakage and general shipping damage!?"** So let's see your horror pics! Scariest...

    LC475 with Kei-truck style monitor

    This is exciting stuff! 475 is such an amazing little machine, seeing it pushed past the normal limits is quite the thing to see. I'm genuinely curious to see it perform using Soft PC loading Windows and playing DOS games lol

    LC475 with Kei-truck style monitor

    Spends enough time with fast cars that he decided the computers were too slow! amazing little project :D, I know what I'll be doing with my monitors if the guts ever give up. as an aside I would buy this overclock mod as a kit if ever available, would be a great project.

    LC520 Overclock

    I have done the overclock to a couple pizza boxes as well, a marginal improvement but why not!? On the '040 machines I usually add a heatsink just in case but typically those units don't get too hot.

    LC520 Overclock

    Nope! If we look at the actual performa 275 (Color Classic 2) these resistors aren't installed from factory. Further evidence that the LC520 was just the Color Classic 2's big slow brother!

    Interware VDR-2A - SE/30

    Works without drivers, I did chase down an interware suite but it can't detect anything in the slot. (Not that I'd expect much tweaking outside the OS adjustments).

    Interware VDR-2A - SE/30

    On my quest to build another money pit that looks ridiculously good I happened across a rare bird for the SE/30... The Interware VDR-2A *drum roll* The card itself enables a secondary output over DB15 at a resolution of 640x480 with "Millions of colors" (I stop counting colors if they aren't...

    Not only vintage Computers

    It's 5am here and I just woke the baby screaming in amazement! Such a beauty! Had a black Boxter S for a period 3 years ago but work and family plans demanded something... "practical" so hello Ford Focus Hatchback.

    I didnt purchase the mouse as its aparantly not the best functionally (compared to original). I have seen Macally or Macway clear mice and keyboards though, just waiting for one to pop up!

    I've been searching for transparent peripherals for quite awhile now, this week I found a $2 phone that while useless, looks right at home atop the Maceffects SE./30

    BMOW ROM-inator install in Mac512!

    I've had to get creative when sourcing the parts list from Canada as well! Here's hoping some of these STM32 bluepill clones work as they should :S

    LC520 Overclock

    In regards to the LC520 (68030 @25mhz) it can often be overlooked in favor of the LC575 (68040 @33mhz). For those unaware these motherboards are a convenient direct swap-in replacement for the sluggish Color Classic motherboard (68030 @16mhz). *While I am not in favor of cabalistic practices, I...
