Dear all, I have a LC575 logic board fitted to a colour classic. Do you know of any video capture card which would fit into the LC575 LC slot?Many thanks Lang |

There may be a TV tuner card that fits there...~Coxy - Leader, Tactical Operations Unit 68k Macintosh Liberation Army (now with forums!) 00013 Macs liberated. |

Hey, what is this doing in my forum?Anyway, you'd first need to get an LC PDS to Nubus adapter, and then you'd need a video capture card that's only 7" long, which I'm almost positive doesn't exists. As far as I've seen, all the Nubus video capture cards and TV tuner cards are full-size (12"). 666th poster to the 68K Macintosh Liberation Army Forums Mod of the Mac II series Forums Total 68K Macs liberated: 5 |

The only computers you'll be able to use a PDS -> Nubus adapter are the IIsi, 610 and 660av. (someone correct me if i'm missing any models - ones with built-in Nubus don't count)FireWire is fast General, 4 star Forum moderator 68k Macintosh Liberation Army |

SE30 maybe? It worked with the ExpanseSE if memory serves.Is the LC575 mobo a late LC/Q605 or an early LC58/Q630 variant? I can't tell from the applespec data. The architectural transitions from 475-520-550-575-580-630 are fascinating (the whole scenario seems strange even for Apple!). I also can't understand the form factor solution for your upgrade. Is the color classic mobo mounted in a vertically oriented Q630 style drawer with the funky edge connector/wiring harness setup? From the I/O changes in the series it looks like some really interesting options might be open to you if my suspicions about form factor and system architecture development prove correct jt

Now that I think about it, the connector on the back of my Duo2300c is actually an '030 PDS, which makes my Duo Dock a 2 slot NuBus adapter connected to an'030 PDS-to-PPC adapter on the Duo board. That's a little like stretching the cart AROUND the horse isn't it, talk about convoluted system architectures! ;-)Actually, it worked out very well, I can't think of any other case where a PDS spec served three generations of CPU's. jt
