On Saturday's noon EST stream, I'm going to potentially break a perfectly fine Mac SE/30 logic board by socketing most of the PLCC chips to assist with chip testing. We'll also confirm which chips are required in order to get the Mac to chime. #vintagemacintosh youtube.com/live/Sr5ArA1...

Just found out the Mac LC/Performa 475 can be software overclocked up to 43Mhz (instead of 25Mhz). I mean WTF.
It was found last year, too bad we didn't know that back then.

Software-only OVERCLOCK for LC475, LC575, Quadra 605
Folks,
@Mr. Fahrenheit very kindly alerted me to a very surprising discussion at the other forum which introduces a groundbreaking discovery by Mustermann. Apparently, you can now overclock an LC 475...

Finally figured our the correct RGB2HDMI configuration to mirror my Macintosh Plus over HDMI.
Now I can capture its output on a USB capture device too.

#vintagemacintosh The difference between an unrestored (top) and restored (bottom) Mac Plus keyboard is subtle, but I think it was worth the work. (The bottom one is still beige, but the iphone auto color correction makes it paler)
