  • MACVIKING II NuBus Board

    Hello,

    I have a MACVIKING II NuBus Board with the accompanying 19" screen. The
    ROM is labelled 502-011-03 REV.A

    Anyone owns this card with another ROM rev?

    When I switch off the screen, the Mac will hang. I dimly remember this
    being the case in 1988. Can anyone confirm?

    Thanks!

    That combination of screen and board in a Mac II were my first encounter
    with what I perceived as a "serious" computer (compared to the 8-Bit
    BASIC Homecomputing stuff of the era) in late 1988.

    :wq! PoC
