My quest is at an end

Posted by: BadGoldEagle on 2018-10-02 08:38:18 Did you remove the grey scales? (get it? Greyscale / Grey Scales on the case?). I'm sorry, I couldn't resist. Aside from the pretty awful pun, that's a great find you got there. I remember seeing this machine on eBay a couple of months ago. Nobody wanted it. You definitely hit the jackpot with this thing. The DA-15 connector looks a little odd though. Wasn't that Exceed supposed to have a switch on the back? My SE/30 is also pretty much pimped out but it's not quite finished. I need to find a proper SE/30 Radius Colour Pivot and a ROM-inator II. I've already got the accelerator and NIC. It's quite a beast.

Posted by: Bolle on 2018-10-02 09:38:31 The XCeed card that does not have the grayscale option does indeed have a switch, the real deal comes without a switch. The grainy texture of the bezel and the round-ish cutout usually is the thing you want to look for. Mine: On a sidenote I think I saw a similar painted SE/30 for sale here in Germany as well a few months back as well...
