Like it’s christmas 1989

Just received this little box of awesomeness straight from Japan (Buyee). Paid more than I’d like to admit (about $285 all in all ), but getting to open that box and experience the glory of 24bit color from a SE/30 was almost worth it .

Forgot to take a picture of the actual card (Vimage SE/30 | VDR-2A) in my eager to get it running. But it came with a fairly late rom with version 1.3-1. Will share a dump as soon as my T48 gets here from China in a few weeks time. After that, the plan is to add the missing oscillators and switch the rom to *hopefully* unlock it into a full “Vimage CAD SE/30”, supporting additional res/color modes such as 1024x768@8bits

Haha thought I’d seen a earlier version dated 1989. But perhaps they were released in -90. Terribly sorry to spread misinformation on such important details. I’ll make amends by celebrate the holiday twice this season
