Macintosh Plus
ED
Compacts1986Common
The first Mac that was genuinely good enough. The Plus shipped with 1MB of RAM standard, a double-sided 800K floppy, and — crucially — a SCSI port for external storage. Sold continuously for three years and six months, longer than any other Mac before it. Apple manufactured so many that a Plus often costs less than a Classic today, despite being older. The machine that proved the Macintosh concept was commercially sustainable.
