JT737 Posted February 13 Report Share Posted February 13 So I've been browsing/buying Mac stuff on Yahoo Japan for over a year now, and I have to say it is amazing how much old Mac stuff is routinely for sale on it! My latest item that I bought is this: an Interware 68030 accelerator, with the original box.....for only $100! Well, at least that was the auction price, it was roughly another $40 to get it to me from Japan. But still, considering that the same style Daystar 68030 routinely goes for $400 or more, I was amazed! The accelerator runs at 50mhz and has both an CPU and FPU. I used Bolle's adapter to test it out; and while it works, it looks like I need the right driver to get it running at 100%. I figured that since it came with the original box it would come with the original drivers, but unfortunately it didn't. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
tommijazz91 Posted February 13 Report Share Posted February 13 Very nice find! I also find Yahoo Japan to be a good source of Mac items. Shipping can be expensive, but it can be well worth it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
JT737 Posted February 13 Author Report Share Posted February 13 @tommijazz91-Thanks! In addition the the 30-50F, I also just won an Interware CV 40-40 booster that should show up here in a few weeks. When it does and I get around to testing it, I will definitely make a post about it! In the meantime, I would be curious to know if anyone else here has an Interware 30-50F and what they think of it.
