| can I read my gmail with 512 × 384 pixels? |

So, I am still chicken about doing the VGA mod to my Color Classic. But I am OK doing the software mod that will let me put a over clocked 575 logic board in my Color Classic.
So here is my question. My plan was to use the CC to mostly read my gmail. Can I still do that with the screen at 512 × 384 pixels?
Thanks
jack

You should be able to use the mobile site, I would think.
Sometimes, you have to boldly go where no one has gone before, so...

Setup your gmail to use pop3 and use Eudora...

...to boldly go where no one has gone before... Excellent Star Trek reference! [😀] ]'>
As has probably been mentioned elsewhere, a Color Classic won't exactly run at warp speed, especially on the internet. Although it could potentially run at 1/8 with the 575 board in it.

Thanks to all for the help. I am going to do the software patch and roll in a 575 board with 128MBs of RAM, a crystal upgrade, and a full 68040 (is this the correct one?) CPU. I can not find any 70ns 512K 68pin VRAM SIMMs, so I am going to use the 80ns ones. So, I will have the horsepower, but only a 512 X 384 screen.
Will old Eudora under 512 X 384 pixels?
Question for TheWhiteFalcon: I do not know what "use the mobile site" means. Can you explaine a little bit more about this to me please?
Thanks everyone.
