Introduced in March 1987, The Mac II was the ultimate expandable Mac. Based on the new 68020 processor, the Mac II was the first 32-bit Mac. It ran at 16 MHz, its basic 1 MB of ram was expandable to a staggering 68 MB, and it included 6 Nubus slots, which allowed for a number of different Apple and Third Part expansion cards. The Mac II was the first Mac with color capabilities--a graphics card could be installed capable of handling up to 16.7 million colors! It also included a SCSI port, two ADB ports, one or two 800k floppies, and room for an internal hard drive. It originally sold for $3,898 for the basic system, and at $5,498 for 1 MB of RAM, one 800K floppy disk drive and one 40 MB internal SCSI hard disk drive. An upgrade was made available in 1989 which included the 1.4 MB Super Drive and a better ROM. The Mac II was discontinued in January 1990.
