The LC III (aka Performa 450):
68030 @ 25 MHz, optional 68882 FPU (socketed)
32-bit data bus
RAM: Theoretically up to 132MB with MicroMac's BigSimms. One socket; 72
pin, 4MB soldered.
The LC III+ (aka Performa 460 (small HD), 466 (medium HD), 467 (large HD)):
68030 @ 33 MHz, optional 68882 FPU (socketed)
32-bit data bus
RAM: Theoretically up to 132MB with MicroMac's BigSimms. One socket; 72
pin, 4MB soldered.
The only difference between the two was the (a) size of hard drive and (b)
speed of CPU.
