Hey,

I see.. but did you actually try it ? (I mean as an example I have long ago installed the Mac Performa TV/Video subsystem into a PowerMac 7100, which nobody would tell you it works!)

So, the different connector are - to me - not saying its necessairly different The Mac Plus has no ADB Keyboard ;-)

That would be different if you knew anything I don't regarding this, hehehe

anyways, hope I have time to get this solved - I have schematics of both I think, which should shed some light.

Will share outcome if you wish ;-)

best regards,

Mike
