Never opened? That’s remarkable. $600-$700 US.. maybe? The LC II wasn’t a particularly powerful Mac.. nor an iconic one.

Technical explanation of why the LC, LC II, and Classic II have a 10MB RAM limit

The following is an obnoxiously long technical explanation of why the Macintosh Classic II, LC, LC II, and Performa equivalents have a 10MB RAM limit. For most of this post, I use the Classic II as an example. TLDR: 1. Not enough address pins connected between CPU and memory controller. 2. Not...
