I believe that Apple forever used the word 'Mac' on his machines but always 'Macintosh.' It is true also that the used typography is not the original typography of Apple. Besides, I believe that Apple forever used some small capitals in place of minuscule characters. According to the person who sold this Mac to me, this Mac comes of a big university to Brussels. I think therefore that the purchase must be important in order to decide to create this label who is well achieved (in spite of the owing damage to the utilization of Mac). The only other Macintosh that I know who possesses a labels in relief is the Macintosh Hyperdrive. In my opinion it is not no more Apple who is to the origin of Macintosh Hyperdrive and his label. The Macintosh Hyperdrive was some Macintosh 128k, 512k ,512ke and the Plus. They were upgraded in Macintosh Plus. I am curious of seeing the branding logo of the bicycle. Daniel :-)
