Nope. Technically, it is compatible, but the video subsystem isn't.

Nope. Can't put a NuBus card in there. I asked about that a couple of years ago, actually. Can't be done.

heh... 'd be nice though... a lab of 605's humming with the 14" (any) displays and ADB keyboard/mouse II sets... all networked and just kinda sitting at the A/UX login screen, where user names and passwords are all stored, and authenticated at the workgroup server 95 in the back of the room

I once ran A/UX on a speak and spell. It kept crashing, though.

Is this on the 475? Did it display any video? It WOULD be pretty cute to have a MicroQuadra sitting there with a 12" Mono or an AudioVision 14" running A/UX as a server if there was video, but if there wasn't, there'd be no point.

EEK!
