I think it was an experimental set top box for interactive TV. I think it was based around a modified LC motherboard.

mac.com isn't letting me in, but I might know what you're talking about. (Here comes a long shot...) If any of you were at MWNY 1999, one booth kinda in the middle of the right half had a mysterious piece of Apple hardware. It was shaped sort of like a Quadra 660av, but was black and didn't have any drives on the front. I don't remember what jacks/ports it had on the back, but they didn't tip me off as to what the product was. Is this what you have?

That is probably a MacTV, if it's shaped like that.
Though the TV had drives...

Ya, i thought it was for interactive tv, i cant get it to do anything though, it will pass the cable tv signal through its Rg-56 ports, but thats it. maybe its cause its not FCC approved..heh

The two "do not remove" ports are the european scart connector, featured on almost all a/v equiptment in europe.
It carries composite, RGB, and y/c video, audio, and 16/9 format change, both in and out.
Must be somthing they prepared for the european market.
