My first Mac was an LC III (the one in my avatar, actually). It was the machine that made me get into computers in the first place. The only reason it didn't make the move to Sydney was due to space constraints. (its safely stored at my parents' house back in Queensland, along with the other 98% of my collection) They were a great machine when new, and were a good value used Mac for a few years, with the fast CPU, full 32 bit bus, ability to take up to 36MB of RAM and drive displays at up to 832x624 in 8 bit colour (with max VRAM), in addition to Portrait Displays.
