Don't forget one thing about those pre-Mac Apples: The company that
made the chipset for them, Commodore Business Machines, also made the
best selling computer ever, the Commodore 64. I had one for six years.
Of course, what made them the best selling computer ever also led to
their inevitable downfall. They never upgraded the original model, so
everyone else left them in the dust, and it got too expensive to make
a fossil after a bit.

The Commodore Amiga (that stands for something, but I don't remember
what) was also a copy of the Mac, basically it was a Mac that used
cheaper IBM compatible printers and other accesories. I have never
used an Amiga, but have friends who loved it.
