After the debacle with my IIsis (update: I got one to work!) I have moved on to my next reachable machine: Power Macintosh 7100/66. Yes, the slow 'original launch' model. And just like I remembered, it has System 7.1.2 (the earliest OS capable of running on any PowerPC,) on it. Complete with original "PowerPC Demo Applications" folder and everything! I even had found some VRAM SIMMs to put in it, so it can do more than 256 colors.
Although for the life of me, I can't get it to let me change resolutions on my AppleVision 1710AV... (Yes, I tried with both the onboard video and the HPV PDS video card, which is the one I had the VRAM SIMMs for. And yes, I've loaded the AppleVision drivers. And yes, I have the ADB connection going.)

My 7100's does not like resolution switching either. the video card will easily see millions of colors but wont switch. I didnt look up to see why as I have so may projects.
