    LC475 with Kei-truck style monitor

    I'd be interested to try swapping out the PLL but fitting a fixed 18.75MHz oscillator for 37.5mHz bus speed - I have the PPC upgrade card, it's clock doubles the bus speed again for the cpu clock, and the actual chip on there is rated for 75MHz. That, coupled with stephen/drake's 512k 60ns...

    LC475 with Kei-truck style monitor

    Oooh - how did you get the bus speed that high? I thought 40MHz alone was too hit and miss? Have you replaced the clock generator?

    Interware VDR-2A - SE/30

    Oooh Interware Fwiend! :D I have one of these too, in an SE/30 purchase from Buyee - the DIN connector has a few bent pins, but will try giving mine a good go. Did you need any special drivers/extensions to make it work?

    Yes, good plan - we can add those categories. I knew i'd left something out... although, i'll name it Vintage Sinclair :)

    4MB Macintosh II & IIx 30-pin SIMM's

    While this is true, the 30-pin SIMM's available from there and Keystron (https://keystron.com/) won't work in a II or IIx still - hence the need for these ones.

    Initial feedback

    Hey @Woodengamer - thanks for the feedback - that was quick! We've already amended the trade section to reflect 'caveat emptor' :) As all trades, at the moment, are approved manually by a moderator, as we're likely to be on the low side of trades for now - but as we scale, i can certainly see...

    Erics Finds

    Always so jealous of the finds/hauls you guys get in the US - I'd kill for a fraction of that! I had a Powerbook 180C, but i donated it to RMC. I want to get another one though, but they're hard to find and half the time, broken screens and shattered case plastics...

    4MB Macintosh II & IIx 30-pin SIMM's

    Project spearheaded by Phil Cranmer - I just did the Sprint Layout - the following is Phil's writeup While the Macintosh II and IIx were designed with sufficient address lines to handle up to 128MB of RAM in two banks of 4 SIMMs (giving a total of 8 slots), standards for DRAM chip design...

    Logic Board - Macintosh Classic Reloaded

    As with the Macintosh SE, many Classic's have died because of Apple's short sighted decision to add a battery to the board - and unfortunately a particularly explosive one at that! This will inevitably pop and causes a horrific amount of damage. Thankfully, because i've done this before, with...
