Too bad it won't run system 6 :/ I'm going to backup the current contents to my white ibook and try the 7.5.5 option. "Crashy pile of poop-" that is my endearing memory of System 7 :D It wasn't a normal day on the ol' LCII until you got the bomb …10 times or more. On Oct 31, 1:31 pm, "Tyrone L.

This one came with RAM Doubler 8, so I work with 60MB. My main goal is make a sort of classic graphic designer's workstation (since I don't think I'll find a IIfx). Silly, perhaps, but I like to have an appreciation for the beginnings of the "desktop publishing" era. I haven't used that term in a while… wow. Originally I had my eyes on this SE/30, but this particular Color Classic came up for a screaming deal and I jumped on it. This one is loaded with old games and such and I've only run into problems running classic apps that weren't designed for system 7.6, i.e. MusicWorks and I gave my Mac Plus to a friend… -- ----- You received this message because you are a member of the Vintage Macs group.
