Not really :). 'Tricked Out' is the US English equivalent of 'Decked 
Out' which means 'jazzed up' or enhanced.

The other IIci I got was a Photoshop/scanner station for the last leg 
of it's life, finally retiring in 1999 when they moved over to a G3 
Beige. It only had a 256 colour gfx card in, god along knows how they 
managed. I do know it was filthy when I got it and it took an 
afternoon and my trusty can of foam cleaner to get it ship-shaped.

stacked 840av as examples of just how powerful Macs of over 8-15 
years vintage could be.
