Welcome to Oldschooldaw.com! (Online since 2014) serving vintage computers worldwide! this is our NEW WEBHOST as we've moved from our OLD GODADDY to a brand new server location to start off 2026. thanks to Godaddy for hosting the site for 11 years and a big thank you to IONOS.COM for the great pricing going forward! this site exists as a resource for historical archival of information + file resources neccessary to make use of vintage computer hardware + vintage music composition software that runs on those old platforms. conceived conceptually by Chris Nova to address the problem of  missing information + missing chronological references caused due to this information slightly predating the creation of the modern internet, much of the information here has been sourced from magazines + books as well as scraped from other websites that have since gone offline and wont be coming back.

is there a relationship between the quadra 700 + IIcx?
is the quadra 900 the evolution of the IIfx?




Quote
The first two computers in the Quadra lineage were the Quadra 700 derived from the Macintosh IIcx and
the Quadra 900 derived from the Macintosh IIfx
. Later the Centris 650 and the Quadra 800 platform along with the Centris 610 platform.

The Quadra 605 and Quadra 630 are a part of the Entry Level architectures and is documented there.

The Quadra 660av and Quadra 840av are covered in the AV (Audio/Visual) architecture.




interesting i didnt know these machines were part of an explicit evolutionary chain

also http://www.angelfire.com/ca2/tech68k/macii.html there seems to be a link between the IIci And the IIsi
