Just thought you might like to know that I found a whole bunch of backup disks from 1996! Just burnt it to a bootable CD and attempted to boot it on the LCIII. Works fine! w00t!

I just got a PowerMac 8100/100 working again at my friend's house so I might start fiddling with my Performa 400 with Quadra 605 board and see if I can get it running. Sadly I still only have the one extra monitor since my Perfora Plus display has a bad cable.
Hey, if anyone has a Performa Plus display with a bad tube or whatever, I'll pay you $10 for the cable. You just have to take the back off and disconnect the cable and send it to me.

I tried to run 7.6 from floppies on my 7300...
it didn't work :-\
ohwell
the 7300 feels young with 8.1
cool for finding the original disks of your LCIII!!
