I am old enough to remember the Classic II as a FAST machine.

Yes, you read that right. And it's still surprisingly able, with the right software. I installed Nisus Writer 5 on one earlier in the year, and it was very pleasant to use (especially with a monospaced screen font to cut down on graphics demands). Something like WordPerfect 3.5e also runs on it very well.

I think I prefer the Classic II over the SE/30. It's something about the form and sheer humanity of the machine's scale and function that I like. It was (theoretically) expandable, too; it's not the little Classic II's fault that so little was made for its PDS slot.
