You have the same max. settings I do on my two Color Classics, except I run RAM Doubler to expand the RAM to 36 MB total. I also run everything in 256 colors. I am able, using iCab and patience, to go onto the Internet with these two computers. I usually use these for games from the 256-color era (roughly 1989 to 1995). I also have installed AppleWorks 5, Office 4.3, and various other products. From System 7 Today (a website), I installed an MP3 player, though the name of it escape me right now. I also have external hard drives, about 1 GB each, ZIP100 drives, and CD-ROMs. I still use Excel on one of the Color Classics for accounting, though I know there are better, modern programs out for better, modern devices, I prefer to use what I was trained to use two decades ago, and it serves me fine.
