this is an average looking somewhat weathered Macintosh Plus machine, it is fully functional , the screen is focused and crisp.
very loud chime at start up, floppy drive works fine. However, what is far more interesting is the Quesse Total Systems acceleratorinstalled in the machine. Very rare upgrade.
Note the following, the machine and accelerator are tested to be working fine, the program I managed to run on a OS 6 boot disk reports a 68020 cpu, presuma...blyOS 7 and a later program will show the full 68030. The disk will be included. I don't know the speed of the accelerator, the timing crystal shows 40MHZ,
actual speed would be a division of 40, according to CPU world the CPU is rated at 20MHZ

The serial cable attached to the accelerator is included. It was where the battery goes.
note that there are two aftermarket fans installed in the machine which are not working, (or spinning very slowly). Presumably they are installed for active cooling.
please read carefully, I am selling this machine and the rare upgrade it has together as they were found, they are both tested and working together. I am not responsiblefor removal and installation into other machines, for that reason there are NO RETURNS accepted. This sale is final as described above. You are buying this at your own risk.
If the buyer asks I can remove the motherboard and it's upgrade and only ship them (free shipping), they are SOLD AS IS.
due to the age of the items no warranty of any kind is offered. only the machine , the serial cable that came with the accelerator and a power cord are included in this sale.
feel free to ask me any questions.
