I recently passed an eBay auction which consisted of a Performa 475. Or at least that's what the seller said it was. The picture showed a flat pack Mac, LC-style case (ribbed front) with "Macintosh Performa" inked on it. Below that was a sticker (not a typical Mac badge, just a sticker) that said "Performa 475" in Apple Garamond. I considered bidding on it only to see what it really was. The auction ended at $4.75 or so, and the seller immediately removed the pic from the listing. Maybe he just needed the web space. I've never seen a Mac that only said "Performa" on it, but I assume early Performas may very well have been sold that way. If so, what models were sold that way? Has anyone else seen the model number on a sticker as described above? Is it possible that early 475s may have been manufactured with the original LC-style case? BTW, thanks to Mark (it's all his fault for starting this obsession with flat pack Macs), I now own the following falt packs: LC dual floppy LC LC II LC III LC III+ Q605 so, I guess all I need is a 475...unless I want to be really anal and try to get each of the 47x derivatives. :P -- Vintage Macs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
