Macintosh Classic

Demand for another "all-in-one" Mac, such as the popular Macintosh Plus and the SE, spurred the introduction of the Macintosh Classic. Limitations of the form factor prohibited major innovations in this model, which had the same 9" display, 512 by 342 one-bit video, and 4MB memory ceiling as its predecessors. Unlike other Macs, memory expansion was only possible with a special memory expansion card.
One new feature in the Classic was the ability to start from a ROM disk by holding down the keys command-option-x-o during the boot process.
Perhaps the best feature of this Macintosh was the price, it was the first sub-$1000 ($1500 with 40Mb Hard-Drive) computer introduced by Apple.fr:Macintosh Classic it:Macintosh Classic
