What cool things can I do to a LC?

680x0 Macs and Lisa

I got a mac LC, and it is boring. Any mods or hacks I can do with it. LCs are dime a dozen, it doesn't matter if I break it.

SE changed to LC ~BDub

just a suggestion...

just a suggestion... can't you just edit your original post instead of commenting on it? Anyhow, you could find a full 040 chip from a dead Quadra or something, and upgrade the processor.

I also saw a mod for removing the floppy and adding a second HD.

Have you thought of putting on NetBSD or debian linux?

If it's an LC 475, you're good to go for a full '040 upgrade.

If it's an original LC, I'd suggest going the opposite route, and seeing how much you can get out of it by downgrading the OS to System 6, and maybe adding a second floppy drive for a quiet floppy-only system. Check out System 6 Heaven for possible uses and software.
