To Speed Up An All-In-One

2001-09-16 Thread Jeff Garrison
I've a friend with an LC 520. It's too slow for her, and I want to slide a board into it to make it go-faster. Other than a daughtercard, what motherboard fits right in with no hacks and speeds it up? JEff -- Vintage Macs is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and... Small Dog Electronics

IIci/si ROM SIMM Slot

2001-09-16 Thread JakeCatfox
I have a ROM SIMM slot on my IIsi and IIci. Is there any way I can utilize this to improve performance? I.e. use it to load additional memory, or cache memory from a cache stick (I have a couple of those from AST PCs.) The answer is probably no, from what I've heard, though, but it's worth

BTW, I just saw the PowerPC Upgrade motherboards on MicroMac.com, with 75mhz or 90mhz PPC processors. Just a note: Don't buy these; they want $500 for them. What crap! You can get 4 powermacs for that price.. -- Deven Gallo -- Vintage Macs is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and... Small

Sounds good, but for the cost of the 550 mobo and a 68040 chip at 33mhz or higher, you could buy two accelerators. Those are really a better buy unless you're dead set on stability .. or you need a higher RAM ceiling. I'm very happy with the performance on my IIci with the Daystar Turbo

I was referring to the cost of MicroMac's Logic Board Tradeup service .. world's worst service I've heard of. LC 520 replacement: $500-$600 for a PowerMac board, and a $100 deposit they only refund once they get your old mobo. What crap. However, it'll still be more trouble to get a 68040 chip
