Hello to all

I have my trusty mac][, it works well in MacOS and in unix, but the BSD
hard disk an IBM 330meg seems to be incompatible with the old scsi
controller. Usual SCSI tips weren't successful, the disk works on a quadra
and the resto of the HD's work fine.

anyway, the question is: i can have my hands on a IIfx for about 60$, which
is a very good price here in italy.
if i get it, how far is IIfx development? what could work? i would put in
the same video and ethernet card. probably the same disk with everything
pre-installed.
do SCSI and ethernet work? i could login from ethernet.
of course if keyboard would work..... maybe serial ports, X... floppies...
i mean, where is it? or do i better wait and keep my macII ?

the other thing is it is difficult to find anything (used or new) else from
256k or 1mb simms for the macII. i had some 4 megs (16mb total) but they
worked on a IIci and not on my II. i suppose they were missing PAL


and 8 megs aren't much for Mac or X

PS: if you say to buy it and the thing is hallfway usable i am then ready
to make tests and report things, but i don't want to spend that money (am a
poor student) for a non-usable thing
