Good to know--you just saved me a bunch of money :D So if I want to do a fresh install of 7.5.5 with the drive that's already in there, it's as easy as burning an ISO of this and popping it in the CD-ROM?

Thank you!
1. Is there any reason I shouldn't choose this fan? https://www.amazon.com/quiet-Case-Fan-Cooling-BL044/dp/B00IOIJ4AC/

How do you think this was accomplished? How did it even connect to a Mac?
I was hoping it would be as easy as modding a Spectrum or VCS, just solder another wire to the video lead off the board :)
