No, not for a cable modem, but for cable TV. More or less a black LC 520 (complete with a black mouse and black keyboard), Macintosh TV let you watch 16-bit TV or use 8-bit graphics. (Assuming you were in the US, Canada, or some other country using NTSC video. Mac TV didn't support any other broadcast standard.) This was perhaps the oddest Macintosh ever. It was the last desktop Mac with a 68030 processor, the first with a built-in TV tuner, the first black desktop Mac, and the first Mac to ship with a remote control. It is the only model in the "500 Series" that doesn't have an available PDS; that gave way to the TV tunder. The built-in 14" Trinitron monitor displays 16-bit TV images, but only 8-bit computer graphics. Software allowed it to capture a single frame from the TV as a PICT file. Alas, you can't watch TV and compute at the same time. It was an interesting experiment, marketed exclusively through consumer electronic channels. With a 68040 CPU, the option of watching TV in a small window while computing, or the ability to capture TV as a QuickTime movie, and this could have been a serious contender. Instead, it is a curious footnote in Apple's history. Despite using a 32 MHz CPU, Mac TV is about 15% slower than the 25 MHz LC III and LC 520 because it uses a 16 MHz data bus. Cleverly designed in some ways, intentionally crippled in others, The biggest drawbacks are a complete lack of upgrade options (without losing the TV features) and an 8 MB memory ceiling. Regardless, this Mac looked great in black. Too bad only 10,000 were ever produced, making it perhaps the most rare Mac ever.
