Also can confirm, the 110v supply is 100% compatible and will generate less heat in my experience which can only be a good thing.

Is there any existing board layout for a 30pin simm? I'm not sure if it's just me, but I've started encountering a larger number of failing simms these days. I'm also noticing the prices starting to creep up on ebay for larger modules. It's to the point where I think it's worthwhile to try to...

It’s working well for me with the exception of my mouse. The new version was supposed to have fixed it, but I still have issues where I have to unplug/replug it. Other than that once you install an ssd the mini is the perfect os 9 machine and is small enough to live on my desk full time.
