Hello. I'm Antonio Rodr�guez, and I'm from Spain. Maybe some of you may know me from LEM's Compact Macs and Apple II lists. I'm a vintage computer collector specialized in Apples (well, as much as you can be in Spain - Apples aren't very common here). I currently have a fully expanded Apple //e Enhanced (including mouse and three disk drives), an Apple //c (my first computer!), a Macintosh Classic 4/500 and a Classic II motherboard with 10 Mb that I swap in and out of the Classic. I have joined this list because yesterday a friend of mine gave me a PowerMac 6100/60. I consider myself lucky, because the configuration isn't the basic one: it seems to have 24 MB of RAM (8 Mb onboard plus two 8 Mb SIMMs), an L2 cache SIMM (size unknown - maybe 256 Kb?), and a Quantum Fireball SE 4.3 Gb hard disk!
I say "it seems" because I haven't powered it yet. It came without monitor, and it doesn't have the same DB-15 video connector found on most Macintoshes, but a bigger connector with four rows of small pins. Can you tell me how is this connector called and where can I get an adapter to plug an (S)VGA or Macintosh monitor to it? I have been searching the list's archives but haven't found anything useful. When I get it to work, I have plans to connect it to my home's Ethernet network. I have read that the needed transceiver isn't very hard to find, so I don't think I'll have any problem. I think it can be a pretty good fileserver for the Classic/Classic II, and also it can serve as a TCP/IP gateway to access the files on my W*****ws' FTP server from the little compact :-) .
