Hi! I'm NobleArc, And Iv'e decided to share the story of how I got My Mac Color Classic.(Or at least the price etc) Ok, It has 10MB o' RAM and I haven't checked for a daughterboard yet, (It's in sechelt I'm not.) It will arrive here in two weeks and 3 days. Blah blah blah OS 7.1 Upgrading to 7.5.5 OR 7.5.3 OR 7.5 on arrival, already have OSes on Diskette. I got it for $35.00 CDN. End of story..... Fade to black. NobleArc,

1) ADB CD-ROM drives (or hard drives, for that matter) don't exist. ADB is for keyboards, mice, gamepads, etc...it's far too slow for any *real* data transfer. You'll need SCSI for the Color Classic. 4x external SCSI CD ROM drive on eBay: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2300441547&category=11149 You won't be able to use an ADB->USB adapter to use USB devices on an ADB Mac. Those adapters are for using ADB devices on USB Macs. Dig? -------------------- master of the Quadra/Centris Stick of Justice™ and figure-head of the Peoples' PDS Republic -------------------- |
