I haven't stopped collecting Mac Plusses yet, either. =^)
I found one buried under a pile of Apple II's in someone's back yard
last week. It was stained, streaked, rained-on and bedraggled, but
after a bleach-job, and a new floppy drive, it's joined the ranks of my
stable of hard drive-less, floppy-only Macs. It's due for a special upgrade
soon. Will provide pix upon completion.
