Introduced in October 1991, the Classic II was both an upgraded Classic and a replacement for the venerable SE/30. Based on a modified LC motherboard, the Classic II shares a 16-bit data path and a RAM ceiling of 10 MB (the Classic II tests at about 60% the performance of the SE/30, even though both use the same 16 MHz 68030 CPU). These shortcomings, plus the lack of an expansion slot, made it a poor replacement for the SE/30 and deserving of the Road Apple label.
The Classic II was the last Mac to use a 9" b&w screen. [lowendmac]
