Well yeah actually I have, but it's not the only reason I want one. I've always been looking for one because it's good for running A/UX (as long as it has a full 040 in it) I've often wanted to tinker with A/UX. Running it on an 040 machine would be rather nice.

Ok I've changed my mind. I forgot I sold all my old Apple stuff previously, I used to have a USB Wombat adapter which is very expensive and hard to find usually. Also don't have other accessories like the video > vga etc.

I sold all my Apple stuff when I got rid of this beauty a while back: viewtopic.php?f=63&t=4340

By the time I add up all the cost, it's not worth the expenditure for a little bit of curiosity ;)

@Steve i could probably lend you an LC 475 once I’ve repaired it? It’s got a 68040 in it?
If it ain't broke, test it to Destruction.
