series of all-in-one personal computers designed, manufactured, and sold by Apple Computer, Inc.

Do you remember the first Mac , the one that didn’t even have a model number? The amazing 8 MHz 68000 CPU, crystal clear 9″ b&w screen, huge 400 KB floppy drive, and radical mouse?

Fast forward from 1984 to 1998. Using up-to-date technology, Apple created a worthy successor to the original Macintosh as a fully integrated computer. No separate monitor, no rat’s nest of cables, and no external drives necessary.

With a 233 MHz PowerPC 750 (the same G3 CPU used in the Beige Power Mac G3 ), 32 MB of RAM, a 4 GB hard drive, a 24x CD-ROM, ethernet, stereo speakers, and an integral 15″ multiscan monitor, there’s not much you’ll need to add.
