The Macintosh Plus is definitly not a Road Apple: It was: * first Apple Computer with SCSI. * first Apple Computer with upgradeable RAM
At the time Apple starts producing the Mac Plus it was an amazing Computer. Back in the years before 1990 most professionell computers were used instead of a typewriter. There was no need for a speed-bump or colorfull gaming. The Mac Plus was an ideal computer to do this: Silent, small footprint and able to drive a postscript-printer. Today i can still use a Macintosh Plus with MacWrite and my Laserwriter. It is still usefull after all this years. In 1990/91 when Classic and classic II came out, both were crippled: No expansion, no ethernet, limited memory, b/w. Windows was close at hand and PC's were getting faster. -> Road Apples Uwe -- Compact Macs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/>.
