Push an LC to the Max

[Dzave]

That is exactly the way I feel about it LCGuy. There are so many mods possible that would be fun to do but then you lose scope of what the original goal was. I do want the authentic feel of my first LC machine, like you did with yours.

I think I am becoming like most around here that have many of these machines around some to mod and maybe some not with a wife nagging about "junk" to them laying around. Oh well, at least it is a fun hobby. I feel these machines are an example of 80s-90's engineering at its best.

An interesting option in upgrading the original LC chassis is to make use of the second FDD door. In the beginning machines were available with two floppy disk drives and no harddisk drive. In the hdd equipped models the cutout for the leftmost drive remains, usually closed with a small bracket.

As it comes to the use of flash memory one could be tempted to invest some bucks and insert a SCSI to PCMCIA adapter in place of a second FDD or HDD, accessible from the LC's front. I keep one original LC case just for this non destructive modification.
