Mac Plus video

Waaay off topic here BUT the SE-30 TV raised a few questions. The web page said the SE/30 ran Quicktime movies in a loop. Just what kind of Quicktime movies can you run on an SE/30?
I saw an eBay auction from Japan of Star Wars Quicktime clips on disk but it required 256 colors.

IIRC, Cinepak movies (among others) will play on an SE/30. QT will render as monochrome, of course, using some sort of halftoning algorithm to approximate greyscale. Not pretty, but it's amazing that it works at all.

That's pretty interesting actually and since Cinepak is a plugin I could convert anything really and give it a go on my SE/30.

option8, I really like that mod. And I absolutely love the Happy Mac Boot Hack you implemented!

That Little LCD fits nicely inside the compact Macs enclosure. I'd love to replace the CRT but have the classic guts drive that LCD instead of the CRT (in B&W of course). This would be especially nice on the SE/30, which has the ability to drive 640x480.

I spotted that Ze Cube a number of months ago. But there are no hi-rez pics so I always thought it was a Photoshop joke. If it's real, I want to see it close up!
