Hi, first time posting on lemmy, I hope yall will enjoy my late grandfather's happy lil Mac Plus! Maxed out at 4MB of RAM and modded with power through SCSI and a low rpm fan. That's a fully working ImageWriter on the left. :)

I grew up with newer Macs in the house, but this is truly a representative from a fascinating era of computing.

I learned to read and write on a Mac 512k, until it died when I was 12, but we then entered the multimedia era with a Performa. The technological jump was staggering.
