I've got a Plus with 4mb ram and one of those little fans on the top of the
case, an Imagewriter II, and Apple branded bags for both. Talk about a
smokin' portable unit! Used to take it to the recording studio to play midi
tracks for sessions. Still works. I think my father-in-law bought them brand
new.

about three years)
for $3 at a thrift store. I was able to download some disk images off the
internet. I had to fire up an old IIci with an 800k floppy drive so that I
could write to a 400k floppy.
It has a perfect screen and the floppy drive sounds sooooo smooth! It just
purrrrrrrs...
It boots in 12 seconds running System 0.97! I opened it up and found that it
had been upgraded to a 512k machine (from it's original 128k). I was
disappointed when I found this because I really wanted a totally stock
original. Someday I'll find time to hook up the 900 pound LaserWriter Plus I
found for it.
