The Quadra 605, Performa 475, Performa 476, and the LC 475 are the same machine for all intensive purposes. The biggest difference is that the Quadra 605 has a jumper block placed on a jumper pin to identify itself as the Quadra 605 to the system software, whereas the other three models above don't have that jumper block in place. The above models of course came configured differently in terms of memory, hard drive capacity, etc. (usually). And the Quadra 605 had a slightly nicer looking form factor, although you have to look close to notice it. > If the card does > indeed work with '040s, that means the Performa 575/7/8 qualify too. It's not "if". It **DOES** indeed work with '040s. The only stipulation is that the machine has to have an LC III style PDS slot, and the machine has to be able to be bumped down to 24 bit addressing via the proper control panel. That's all it takes. The Quadra 605, LC 475, and Performa 475/476 models can all handle the IIe emulation card. My LC 475 setup guide even makes mention of the IIe emulation card, if my memory serves me correctly (the book is up in the closet in my Mac's cardboard box so I don't feel like looking right now). regards, coaxial
