| | Macintosh - WikiMac |
 | | It was the first computer to popularise the graphical user interface (GUI), at that time a revolutionary development in desktop computing. | | | So, even the early Macintosh computers were easy to network using AppleTalk. | | | While this was true for pre Mac OS 9 systems, it is less true for Mac OS 9, and totally incorrect for Mac OS X, which has protected memory, so even if one application crashes, the system and other applications are unaffected. |

| | About the Macintosh Classic |
| | By contrast, the other Macintosh computers produced in 1990 were the high end IIfx for $10,000, the IIsi for $3800, and the mid-range LC for $2400. | | | The Classic also came with a SCSI port, allowing a number of peripherals to be added, as well as an Apple floppy port, allowing backward compatibility to those Plus users who wanted to run two 800K floppies at once. | | | The Classic was, and is, an excellent, low cost "homework" computer. |

| | Because system software is installed at the factory, you simply plug in the computer and begin your work. | | | For energy conservation, the Color Classic includes a program to put the computer in a power-conserving standby mode when you aren't using it. | | | The power switch is located on the keyboard, and built-in software prevents you from accidentally turning the computer off. |

| | Emulators Online - Apple Macintosh Emulation |
| | While it may be inexpensive to replace the old Macintosh computers with PCs, it is not a trivial matter to rewrite millions of lines of computer code or to purchase thousands of dollars of new software which may not be able to read the old files. | | | For each Macintosh ROM we list the models of computers that the ROM was used in and the unique "checksum" of the ROM. | | | These are not true classic Macintosh computers and are thus not intended to be supported by our emulators. |

| | Macintosh Classic |
| | The Macintosh Classic was released in an attempt to create an affordable computer that could still be a good machine. | | | However, the machine was vastly underpowered: Although it had a fresh new case, the machine was nothing more than a Mac Plus or SE with a High-Density Floppy Drive, hence the "Classic" designation. | | | This is a close-up of the programmer's Switches. |
