Apple Macintosh LC

Apple Macintosh · 1990

The pizza-box Mac that put colour into schools: a low, wide case, a 68020, and a Processor Direct Slot that took the Apple IIe card — so a classroom could run its existing Apple II software on the new machine. That card is the historically interesting part. Hobbled by a 16-bit bus and a 10MB memory ceiling.
