Having been able to poke around with the Quadra 840AV this weekend, I think I want to put MacOS 8.1 on it and use it some.

Does anyone have the 128MB total I need to max it out? Please let me know how much you want including shipping to 80501.

Cheers

Patrick

the 840 should be a great box. Any chance you're planning to run A/UX on it?


Sorry, I don't have your memory modules. If you aren't able to turn up anything here, I would highly recommend you give your
question a try on the LEM (Low End Mac) mailing list.

There are almost always memory modules, and other parts, available, both for sale and for free, almost daily.

Sadly, the 840av isn't one of
the few machines that will run A/UX:

unlike the Quadra 610, 650, 700, 900,
and 950.

The 840av is still a nice machine to have, though.
I often wish I'd
kept mine.

Supposedly the 840AV sound in is dead-quiet for recording;
a few people
recommended it for high quality LP recording.


Yes, the 840av is very quiet.
If you want to try-out the video hardware, there are still
places you can
download Fusion Recorder out there
on the net. IIRC, it was freely
distributable in the late
'90s, even before the company that made it went out
of business.
