| Quadra 650 running A/UX |
Posted by: hellslinger on 2015-06-22 09:21:25
Now I want to install A/UX on my Quadra 700! I really wish I had kept my 650 from when I was a kid. That thing ran Marathon 2 like a champ.
IIRC, the bad part of the 650 case was the cover. The ability to have a tray CD ROM in the box was nice. If there had been a separate cover and front bezel, it would have been a lot better. The clunky bezels are usually the first thing missing/damaged from any old system I come across.

It can, but not on a 68k laptop.

It came out right after all those awesome snow white macs but before the Spindler plastic so it's not a bad case, but it looks like every other beige box that was around in the mid 90s. The Quadra 700 was the height of attractiveness for non-compact mac cases.
