*cough* Linux.

The RAM is sparse in the Plus but the machine and it's GUI tend to show a
simple superiority for that era that earned my respect through the ages.

I'll admit there is something mystically wonderful about a Plus with 4MB RAM running System 6. It's like the two were made for each other. I suppose they were in a way, but still, the same close connection between Mac and OS was lost from System 7 onwards IMHO. The only thing that even remotely approaches the 'two peas from the same pod' feeling is an iMac G4 running OS X, but it's still not quite the same...
