Still, I am not sure how to install this accel....
I'll try I guess, I have about 6 SE's here, so even if I destroy one...
Putting this accel in a SE could be the closest I come to having an Se/30..
I actually have one Se/30 but machine does those horizontal stripes...
Changed several caps on board, some obviously leeking, still no start...bars
still...will have to probe I guess...

Nope. Both
the Color Classic and the Classic II as well as the
SE-30s were 68030 16Mhz machines. The CC was a little slower
than the II due to the color draw. But yes the SE/30 is reputed to be
faster.
Larry,
I'm afraid you're wrong there....the CC II was clocked at
33mhz and had a true 32 bit data path while the CC was based on a 16
bit data path, the same as the LC series, and was clocked at 16 mhz.
All were based on the 68030. The 16bit data path is what crippled the
CC so badly, not the 16mhz clock. It's said that it only had roughly
60-70 % of the speed of the SE/30.

I think I'm mixing up the various flavors of Classics. I know the
SE/30 was faster than the Classic II due to it's 32-bit data path
and the Color Classic was slower than the C II due to color
processing. The ringer is the Color Classic II which I'm unfamiliar
with. And now I know why I want one. :^)
