    What did you do about the gaps between the bezel and screen if you didn’t keep the crt glass front?

    Angle grinder with diamond cutting disc for glass/tile. Remember to break the glass bead (with pliers) at the end of the neck to depressurize the crt. Throw a blanket over it to be safe when doing that. And use safety glasses!

    Im very happy with the result, it still has the CRT glare from the rounded screen front and feels very "right"

    Or do what i did. Take a broken CRT, cut off the front but keep the band and mount points and mount a 8” lcd inside. Still need to be cleaned up in the back but no gaps or anything visible from the front. And I like the fast that you have black borders like a classic Mac.

    For that you should probably get a 8,4” lcd that fits the case better.

    Bought an SE/30 unseen and it had goodies inside! Xceed color 30?

    No grayscale neckboard for the card, it's a "plain" Micron Xceed 30 color with a DB15 bracket for an external display.

    I saw some board designs on GitHub, are there harness schematics as well for the grayscale neckboard designs? I haven't poked around about this at all as this was as much as a surprise to me as anyone else.

    Is it possible to run both grayscale and an external color monitor as the same time?

    I’m pretty sure this is a color Xceed 30 right? Purchased for the reasonable sum of $90 with the computer. The se/30 needs a recap and I need to figure out if this card works! Enjoy your weekend.

    SE/30 Glitches and PDS issues

    Thanks for your reply. I have some new ram on the way so that will make it easier to take it out of the equation. Hopefully that helps. I managed to get the same persistent error and pattern after a software crash yesterday. Only disappears after completely unplugging for a while. Attaching...

    SE/30 Glitches and PDS issues

    So, I need some guidance on how to figure out these issues I'm having with my se/30. My old SE/30 with a radius pivot color card had leaky caps issues, sound not working screen glitches etc so I had it recapped. After recap it boots and runs fine until I put the radius card back in. Then I get...
