SE/30 with color

This is my first post here. Found this site while googling for info on the new machine I acquired.

At a local swap meet, I found an SE/30, 13Meg RAM, 340 Meg HD, external 800k floppy, Nec 3x CDrom, books and disks. Got it for free. At home I turned it on and it seemed to work, except that the display only had the background. I figured it was somehow broken and that's why it was free. I opened it up to find a rasterops 264 colorboard inside. Apparently this is the default display. I don't have the adapter to hook up the card to a monitor so I pulled it out. A reboot later and I find a completely functional Mac. The clock had only drifted by an hour and a half.

Anyone have a link to the pin outs of the 15pin adapter. The card does 640x480x24bit. The only information I found on the card was an ancient press release about how 24bit color cards just fell below the $1000 mark.

As cool as this little mac it, it does look pretty ridiculous sitting next to my 24" iMac.
