Using board from Performa 575 to do Mystic upgrade on this machine. 1/23/2022 - replaced Fan with Noctua NF-A8. Upgraded to two 512kb 70ns SIMMs for VRAM, switched RAM for 64MB RAM stick (+4MB built-in). Original CPU: Motorola 68030 @ 16MHz
Apple's last compact Mac, and its first with color — but not without compromise. The Color Classic's fixed 512×384 Sony Trinitron display was narrower than every other Mac of its era. Apple's cost-cutting created a machine beloved precisely for its limitations. The 'Mystic' upgrade — swapping in a Color Classic II board — gives it a 68030 and double the RAM without changing the cult-status exterior.
