This was my first Mac. A Performa 475, this machine is identical to the LC 475 in form factor and system board, although it has a clock-doubled version of the MC68LC040 running at 50MHz internally and 25MHz externally. Fun to play games on and simply t o enjoy legacy system software (7.5.5)

* Apple Macintosh Performa 475
* Motrola MC68LC040 50MHz/25MHz
* Needs RAM :(
* 160MB SCSI hard drive
* System 7.5.5 (labeled as MacOS 7.5.5, although technically the MacOS name only refers to versions of the operating system 8 and higher, which is when Apple began selling the OS as a retail product rather than a free product for all Mac users.)
