Also known as the Performa 200, the Macintosh Classic II was the successor to the SE/30. It was built on a modified Macintosh LC motherboard. It shares the LC's 16-bit data bus and 10 MB RAM ceiling - limitaions which slowed the machine considerably. In fact, the Classic II was about 30% slower than the SE/30 it replaced, although it was substantially cheaper. The Classic II also lacked an expansion slot. It was discontinued in 1993.
