Re: putting a IIgs in a Mac II box

[buggie@ben14.unm.edu (stephen e buggie)]

I once swapped a Mac II cpu for 180 ram chips!   That box is HUGE!

A more elegant casing with be to install a IIgs motherboard into a
mini-tower.  I've not done it yet, but intend to.

The mini-tower comes with a 230 watt power supply built-in.   For $14 plus
$3 shipping, I can supply a cable-only plug-together version of BUGG-POWER
for use in the mini-tower.  One end connects to the standard IBM power
plugs, and the other end connects to the IIgs board.

The IIGS motherboard, located in the mini-tower on the floor, with need an
ADB keyboard m/f extension cable.   CROW FRED of Scottsdale AZ sells these
ADB keyboard extension cables NEW for $2.50.

Ask others for info. re. mounting the drives. etc.,l bracing the
motherboard in its upright position, etc.   Steve
