Is it possible that ED meant something other then educational? Could it have meant European Edition or Distribution, or EnhanceD or Enhanced Distribution, or something to that effect? I find it interesting that I can't find a single mention of an "ED" model anywhere on Apple's site. I mean why pawn off 512ke Macs on the European schools exclusively -- what, they didn't have a need for more than half a MB? This must have been one of Jean Luis Gassee's ideas. Stuart are you sure the Plus ED was only sold in the US? I can't seem to confirm anyone in the US with one. You are right that none of the backs were different than the principle production models, but the info sticker would have been, just like the sticker on the 512ke ED that indicates the model number as M0001D. My guess is the Mac Plus ED would have been M0001AD? Surely there would have to be some inventory control method to distinguish between the Mac Pluses with the "ED" bezels and the regular ones. And as long as I'm asking, What did the "W" mean for the stock 512k model number and what does the "AP" mean on the European Plus model number?

Hi!

As some list members will be aware, there were two incarnations of the
'ED': In the US it was a rebadged Plus, and in some European markets it
was a rebadged 512ke.
