you can put an older verions of MkLinux or linux-m68k on it (I used the
m68k Debian port).
How about BSD? I'll probably use the Mac OS, but I wonder about other
options.
I got mine for free from a dumpster, but if it works,
about $10-$20 would
be a reasonable price, depending on how much you want to spend, and the
size of its hdd, memory, any extra cards in it, etc. I still have some 1M
30pin MAC-blessed SIMMs laying around here, email me off-list if you want
any.
Can I use my 9 pin parity simms from my old 386? The parity bits are
just ignored right? If so, then I can drop 32megs into it.
