    Going to look at a B&W G3

    Case looks alright too. Looks like a scsi card and a non-oem video card, which might or might not be interesting.

    QuadraFPGA: HDMI for the 68040 PDS slot

    Would that work on the 040 machines with the LC-PDS slot? Since they didn’t have an 030 wasn’t it an ‘emulated’ pds slot. Yeah, not a lot of room in them pizza boxes. It would probalby need a fully dedicated card that might be beyond the scope of this.

    QuadraFPGA: HDMI for the 68040 PDS slot

    What about us with LC-PDS slot Macs? Joking but sorta serious.

    QuadraFPGA: HDMI for the 68040 PDS slot

    Oooo, your own control panel with custom graphics (in the style of the time). Maybe a little rocket ship to signify acceleration.

    Mystery VRAM

    VRAM dimms to a Powermac 7200 perhaps.

    Quadra 605 - 5-Minute Wait for Startup Chime - Capacitor Issue?

    I have 128MB in mine and the ram check takes a minut or so, not five. I would definitely say an issues with the power supply or such, capacitors probably. My two cents.

    I don't know why, but I remember Basilisk as being cludgy and crash-prone. I used the hda images from my ZuluSCSI in my 475 and it runs quick and completely error-free. The Daystar QuadControl control panel doesn't even crash it (it does it on the web-based InfiniteMac emulator).

    I would definitely go in on a accelerated-video/ethernet combined LC-PDS card. Support all them lonely computers that don't have no fancy Nubus slots.

    3DFx Voodoo 5 5500 PCI MAC: support?

    There ain't no drivers for that card for OS X. 3dfx went out of business and got bought out by Nvidia around when OS X was released. If you're lucky you might get it running as a dumb frambuffer in OS X, but that would be a waste and an insult to such a card.

    3DFx Voodoo 5 5500 PCI MAC: support?

    Non-existent I believe. That's purely a classic Mac OS card. Get the one on eBay that guy was selling?

    250MHz Tsunami Machines... or not

    From what Im seeing and sort of remember, the 8600 came with a 250MHz 604ev on the low end of the scale. The fastest 604e Apple shipped was 233MHz, like you mentioned.

    That's... strangely disappointing.

    You should do some benchmarks between the different drivers, Hawkeye versus Formac. I wonder if the Formac ones are more refined.

    I just wiggle around the mouse. My eyes do catch that moving insect. Like a cat. I think you can set up macOS to 'shake' the cursor, about the same thing but I don't have to set an option that says I'm older.
