  Macintosh Classic II - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Apple Macintosh Classic II (also known as the Performa 200) replaced the Macintosh SE/30 in the compact Macintosh line in 1991.
Like the SE/30, the Classic II was powered by a 16 MHz Motorola 68030 CPU and 40- or 80-MB hard disk, but in stark contrast to its predecessor, it was hobbled with a 16-bit internal bus, a 10 MB memory ceiling, and no expansion slot of any type.
The Classic II was the last fl-and-white compact Macintosh.

 About the Macintosh Classic
The Macintosh Classic was first introduced in October 1990 and was produced until September 1992.
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.

 VAW: Computer Collection: Macintosh Classic
The Classic was part of the low-cost trio Apple introduced on October 15, 1990.
The older Macintosh SE was at least marginally expandable, and the SE/30 was far more capable with its 68030 processor and Macintosh II architecture.

The Macintosh Classic was released in an attempt to create an affordable computer that could still be a good machine.
