I have heard from a reliable source that these won't be available to the general public before winter. |

I have heard from a reliable source that these won't be available to the general public before winter. I will patiently wait then. Thanks for the info. |

I hope this is coming to VCF East for in-person drooling!
Update: just heard that it is coming to East... can't wait. Oh yes, it will be there 🙂 |

And I’d like one, too! |

Mac SE/30 is going to take over the (retro) world. |

As posted in Bolle's profile post, these won't be available until late 2023 or early 2024.
There is no waiting list, preordering, or anything like that. |

There is no waiting list, preordering, or anything like that. Thanks for this. I believe that we all get it, at list I do. I just take the opportunity here to state an informal interest. Bolle already clearly stated his position about waiting or reserve lists. At least he has some figures and he can make an estimated guess. Then ... let's see |

I’d like to order one for my birthday in April. How do I pay now?
(Just kidding!) |

I'd certainly like one too. The demand for this is going to be strong. Just take my money damnit. 😎 |

Adding a standard vga out would go a long way - you don't need the CRT so I may try to power the LCD through one of the spare Molex ports. |

The unpopulated 16 pin breakout header under the neckboard connector is the color output, I believe. Bolle did mention that it'd do 640x480 or 800x600 color if the neckboard is not attached, on the first page of this thread, unless that changed in the meantime. |

If you just want internal color, wouldn't it be a lot cheaper and easier to use another more plentiful video card, like the IIsi PDS card (the $10 one that needs to be cut with a saw)? I'm not sure I see the advantage to using this expensive custom greyscale card if its greyscale capabilities aren't leveraged.
Can this card run internal the greyscale CRT and an external color monitor at the same time? That would be super cool! |

IIsi PDS card (the $10 one that needs to be cut with a saw) There's a $10 one? Where can that be found? |
