How the hell do you remove the '040 from a Rocket Stage II ? 😳

I bookmarked your article a while ago. But I’ll have to wait until I get a microscope and the appropriate soldering tip. :)
The 33MHz '040 is rock stable at 50MHz in the Q700 with QuadDoubler by the way. (y)

Don't worry about a microscope or fine soldering tips for that mod. It's all normal scale stuff, not fiddly. I don't have a microscope and you could do that mod with a 5mm tip iron (not even exaggerating).

Great, will try soon then :-)
I acquired a busted tray loader iMac. Battery had leaked and destroyed the motherboard. The display, though, I'm unsure and think it might still work. Since these used the DB15 Mac monitor connector internally, what are the chances of shoving my LC475 in there somehow. I know about the oddities around the specific refresh rates. But, would it be worth pursuing, or not bother? The display might not even work.

Sounds not unlikely to work. Maybe you need to use two video adapters in series (Mac to VGA and VGA to Mac), maybe also not..

Let's give it up for Lee Felsenstein's Osbourne 1 which turned 45 on April 3rd. That's right, in 1981 this featherweight 25 pounder ushered in the mass-produced portable computer!
