The IICI, IISI and other MAC II's are newer
machines, no real collecting
value IMO. I do have most of the II series but I would not pay more then
$20-$25 for a well equipped one. To recent to collect and to old the do
anything contructive on...I tried www/explorer on a IICI with 32M/cache
card and it's a painfull experience...
Oh, I don't know. Until I got my 7300 I did most of my PPP on a IIsi with
5MB. A little cleverness with NCSA Telnet and Lynx, and I had a "graphical"
web browser (I wrote a program to turn portable anymaps into Tek display
commands, which NCSA Telnet then drew for me). It's just learning to make
do. The IIsi is a nice little machine, I think.
But of the 68Ks, I think the SE/30 is the most useful (to me). I use mine
as a boot server for the IIgses and as the LocalTalk server, after I stuck
a gig drive in it.
