This page of our website is running on a Mac SE FDHD system. First sold to the general public in 1989 for approximately $3500, we purchased this system on EBay for $15. After upgrading it to MacOS v7.5.5 it was placed into service as a web server for this page alone. Why, you might ask? Because we can. Imagine, a system 20+ years old (ancient in computing time) still able to serve as a web server on the internet. Try that with an 8086 or 8088 Intel based computer (if you can find one).

It's also a great system for playing the old classic games like Crystal Quest, Dark Castle, Strategic Conquest, and Tetris.

If you're interested, more detailed specs of this system can be found below.
