Obviously it depends of where you live. I'll give some prices of items I met last sat. at an Apple-fare (new and mostly used Applestuff) in the Netherlands: (count an euro for a US$) 2 x Supermac videocard (nubus), used : 40 euro/each 3 x Supermacmon.cable-adapter for OEM-video, used: 5 euro/each Several Mac to VGA-adapters, new and used: 1 - 2 euro Several VGA to Mac-adapters-6 or 10 dipswitches, new and used: 5 - 10 euro BTW: Not any Supermac-monitor seen (therefore a lot of other pricely very inter. Macstuff). > And, FWIW, it was an 8/1600 card that I used... Ken had the 30/1600. > Both were plug and play. Right. But using the card with a non-Supermac-mon., you'll need the ext. and cp. for the card. (Mail me OL if you want them, 250K) > As always, there are multiple ways to get the same result. Right too! And IMHO this makes working/playing with these rel.-old Macs so nice and funny. Happy Mac-ing everybody, Jo -- PCI-PowerMacs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
