Classic II became Performa 200, LC475 became Performa 475, PowerMac >6400 became Performa 6400, etc. Don't ask me why :) > >Scott Holder > According to MacWorld's Complete Mac Handbook, Apple created the Performa line to be sold at electronics and department stores. They had to call them by a different name because alot of their contracts with Mac resellere gave them exclusive rights to the market area they sold in. So Apple changed the name of the machines, sold the resellers the Macs, and the chain stores the performas. Sounds like the resellers got hosed on that deal to me.
