    Printer for a Macintosh Plus

    No need for the ethernet bridge; the whole reason for the intermediate computer is the ability to get files onto it via a cd, then transfer said files on the plus via floppies This thing isnt even an ethernet ready mac

    90's Network Diagnostics terminal -> All-in-one gaming rig

    90's Network Diagnostics terminal -> All-in-one gaming rig
