It was essentially a 250 with an FPU, though I believe the connector layout is that of the 280. I'm not sure what the poster meant by two versions, unless that just means the 270 and 270c. Yup! >>I also think, from apple manuals that the 250 screen can be used on a >280 if you change the video cable. Yup, the connectors are incompatible, but the screen hardware is otherwise the same. I'm not sure that it'd be worth trying to swap the cable when you could just buy a dead 280, though. >> Darn, you learn something new every day! Guess I'll have to dig up a 250 screen and swop it onto the old 280 I have here, "just for grins" and to say I've done it. Also, MD, I'm going to dump the faster clock chip into the 280 so that I'll have the faster unit! Andrew (Hump? Wot Hump??)
