The SE/30 debuted at $4,300 ($10,000 today). It was upgradable to 128 MB of RAM and could run Mac OS 8.1 with the 32-bit clean ROM update. The machine was definitely a workstation in its day. An absolute beast and much beloved in vintage Mac groups today!
OMG! I loved this update to Doom. This had the 4th episode called Thy Flesh Consumed, which consisted of 9 new levels that were super difficult compared to the original release of the first 3 episodes. If you guys remember Ultimate Doom introduced the 200% health and armor and the crazy Nightmare level. Anyways thanks for this haha, just reminiscing on a favorite game of mine. Sorry I dont have a compact mac from the 80s though but interesting vid haha

Also, the original Macintosh II used the 68020
