What exactly do you mean by specifications? - When I say specifications I mean
the microprocessor speed, amount of RAM (memory), number & type of ports, etc., for specific Classic
Macs.
Where can I find the history behind my Classic Mac? - Luckily I know just the place! It's called Apple History (http://www.apple-history.com/), and has a little history of Apple Computer, Inc., and the history behind each computer made by Apple, including the Classic Macs. Where can I find the manuals for my Classic Mac? - If you go to the Apple Manuals page you can find manuals for almost all of the Classic Macs and Apple peripherals (all the manuals are in PDF format which requires an '020 or better processor and Adobe Acrobat Reader). Also, many stores such as Sun Remarketing sell the actual manuals (almost all are used). Where can I find specifications for my Classic Mac? - Apple has specifications on every single Macintosh computer (including Apple-brand monitors & printers) in the Apple Spec Database, so that should probably be your first stop. If you have a Power Macintosh running Mac OS 8.5-9.1 or Mac OS X then you can use the MacTracker application. MacTracker also has specifications for all Macintosh computers, monitors, and printers, although somewhat less detailed than those in the Apple Spec Database, but provides the additional convenience of having all of the specs available without the need to be on the Internet. If you don't have a PowerMac but you do have a more recent Classic Mac, then do a search for "Apple Spec" on the Apple Software Updates site. There are a few versions of the database files and viewer applications for the Apple Spec Database which can be downloaded directly to your hard drive. Although the most recent database file is from way back in 1998, it even includes the iMac and therefore is definitley recent enough for those interrested in specs for Classic Macs.
