Macintosh LC
Performa 400
Desktops1990Common
The first affordable color Mac — $2,499 with a 12-inch RGB monitor in 1990, compared to $3,700 for the IIsi. The LC used a 16 MHz 68020 (not the 68030 in the IIsi) and a single PDS slot, but it brought color to schools and homes for the first time. The 'LC' stood for 'Low Cost,' which Apple never officially acknowledged. Teachers and students who learned on an LC in the early 1990s remember it fondly despite its limitations.
