Building an internal grayscale card for the SE/30

Wow, I’m really impressed what you did and what’s still possible with the Mac SE/30, well done! Will that become an option to turn on/off via a control panel?
 
Oh, one other question.
Is it just the Turbo040 accelerator that works with this greyscale card, or will other things work, like your P33 Reloaded?
 
Did this project get finished and the cards go on sale? I keep searching the Trading Post forum and can't find anything.

As far as I can tell all accelerators will work together with the card. Tested so far are P33/P34, Turbo040, Carrera040, SE/30 DiiMO as well as the SE/30 specific socketed PowerCache.

Well, what does finished mean to you? :p

There are a few cards on the way to a few friendly users and we'll see how to proceed from there.
I am not yet quite sure if I ever want to build any more wiring harnesses for those things 😅

I paused working on the card over the summer and just picked up working on it again and solved (kind of) two of the main problems we were experiencing. Was going to post a follow up on what happened one of these days.

I guess finished to me means I could buy one. :D

If you do end up feeling like making more, I'd certainly send you some money.
 
I hereby volunteer in building wire harnesses should that help in opening this project up to a bigger part of the community. Having built countless of fpv drones dealing with wire messes and crimping connectors doesn’t feel to alien or annoying to me :). I’m based in Sweden so shipping back to Germany should be easy. Send me a DM if you wish @Bolle
 
Agreed, I feel like the wiring harness is something I could handle, and maybe even assembling the card itself. If it were possible to buy a kit I would be interested if nobody wants to manufacture these.
 
Wow amazing work! And despite owning a Micron XCEED setup I'd be tempted to move to 512x384 vs 512x341 not to mention that virtual desktop feature :-D
