- New Macintosh SE Configuration Added
-
- San Francisco, California. September 19, 1988. A new configuration based on
- the Apple(R) Macintosh(R) SE, the most popular selling model in the Macintosh
- personal computer family, was announced today by Apple Computer, Inc. during a
- press conference held at the Herbst Theatre in San Francisco. The new unit
- will feature two megabytes (MB) of random access memory and an internal 40
- megabyte (MB) hard drive.
-
- "Customer satisfaction with the original Macintosh SE, coupled with a demand
- for increased storage capacity and memory, lead Apple to offer a new Macintosh
- SE configuration," stated Randy Battat, vice president of product marketing.
- "Macintosh customers who want to take greater advantage of HyperCard(R) and
- MultiFinder(TM) will benefit from the extended functionality offered by this
- model."
-
- The new configuration maintains the compact Macintosh signature design, an
- eight megahertz (MHz) Motorola 68000 microprocessor chip, and an expandable
- Macintosh SE-bus slot which allows the unit to be configured to accommodate a
- very broad spectrum of applications and to grow to fit a customer's needs. Up
- to six external SCSI peripherals can also be daisy-chained via the external
- port.
-
- Immediately available, the platinum-colored 2MB Macintosh SE has a suggested
- retail price of 5,069 and is also available internationally in 21 localized
- versions.
