Sorry I was referring to the common practice of overclocking the 25mhz CPUs to 33mhz.

Interesting, I don't plan to use it but I imagine overlocking a 16mhz CPU to 33mhz wouldn't be a good idea!

Yes that would seem logical. I know many Macs of this era had a built in screen eg the Color Classic, so I don't know much about how they packaged desktops.

Hi all, new here but I am a long time vintage computer tinkerer. Have owned many classic Macs and Amiga's over the years. I have been lucking enough to just pick up a NOS unused Macintosh LC III. It's immaculate like new, no yellowing, and no battery damage (don't worry the first thing I did...
