it looks nice but the technically side may be a big failure from what i have gathered on infos about the powerpc 602 its no really the cpu you would like to have in a console (at least not in 1996)
but we will see when i get my new mac where the board fits, in the mean time i can only post some of the old pictures maybe this afternoon (have to get a webserver ready for the site)

This reminded me of the episode of The Simpsons - Treehouse of Horror X: Desperately Seeking Xena.

Comic Book Guy is a supervillain called The Collector. Lucy Lawless is dressed up as Xena, and he captured her. There is a fight scene, in which he reaches for his double ended lightsabre.....


Lawless: (gasps) You removed it from its original packaging!
Collector: No! It's no longer a collectible!

Hehehe.

Hehehe.

at a item like this which is still worth a lot of money you just HAVE to decide if you are a collector or if you are a curiously user and want to know anything
in my case iam just a lazy guy and unpack everything very slowly =)

It is a tough one, isn't it? Leave it and don't use it, or try to use it - although the point of that is minimal, as it is a dev kit for a machine that doesn't exist!!

Does its output work on the kiosk machines?

what kiosk machines ?

in somedays ill think i get a mac where the whole stuff fits in so maybe we see the first moving pictures of a running 3do m2 dev

from what i have read in the documents it should at least be able to get that thing play videocds (ok pretty expensive vcd player) :-D

If I ever have a large sum of money which I had to spend on development hardware, an M2 dev kit would be what I'd spend it on. There's always something special about hardware/software that was never released to me.
